Unsure of what to do with her degree she stubbled upon Citizens First Bank in The Villages, Florida where she became an Admistrative Assistant to the Senior Vice President. She absolutely loved The Villages Community and the growth that was happening in the small town where she ended up. Although being an Executive Assistant was nice, it wasnt her dream. She then decided to give the real estate world a chance and found her true passion. She has been part of ERA Grizzard Real Estate since 2002 and has held several different postions in the business from Receptionist to Coordinator to Sales Manager but her true love is selling homes.

    • Just to let you all know we closed on our house today and have just finished unloading the rental truck - very tired but relieved - just have to put the house together and empty storage unit - thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. I want to say a huge thank you to Melissa for getting us thru all this she is a star and would def recommend her to anyone.
