Hey there! I'm Melissa, mama to Penelope (6), Juniper (4), and Enzo (1). I grew up in Vermont, surrounded by nature and adventure, which sparked my love for the outdoors and staying active. My journey brought me to North Atlanta in 2024, when my family of 5 moved from Boston, and it was here that I discovered the FIT4MOM community. I started as a class regular, drawn in by the strength, connection and fun that each session offered and it has since become my second home. I spent years on the fields and trails as a competitive soccer player and runner, and after college I dove into a 13-year career in commercial real estate finance. Making the switch to a fitness role was a leap of faith and dream come true. It's inspiring to watch other moms find a bit of "me time" and genuine connection amidst all the beautiful chaos that is motherhood. I'm passionate about helping women stay strong, supported, and uplifted in every season of their journey. When I’m not teaching or chasing my littles, I’m typically covered in dirt in a humbling attempt to grow my garden with the hopes of a few items making it to our table.
