Why I Love My Job
Numbers. I have always been a numbers person, which can get routine. Add a little chaos with operations, and it all balances out.

Personally Speaking

Mel’s stellar concentration and precision serve her well outside the office. In her spare time, she participates in barrel racing, a rodeo event that has her running the cloverleaf pattern on her powerful horses with grace and speed. She also trains her Border Collie and Australian Cattle Dog (blue heeler) for agility trials. Mel enjoys giving back by supporting charitable causes such as the Susan G. Komen Foundation, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Wounded Warriors Project and Muscular Dystrophy Association.
