Transforming Leadership by Humanizing Business Practices.

Beth H., Senior Employee Benefits Consultant, USI Broker

"Melissa brings a level of thoughtfulness and strategy to wellness consulting that is truly rare. I recently had the opportunity to see her present a two-year game plan for a client, and it was clear that her approach is both intentional and manageable—far from the cookie-cutter solutions often seen in the industry.

With over 20 years of experience as a broker, I can confidently say that Melissa’s ability to tailor wellness initiatives to an organization’s specific needs is unparalleled. She doesn’t just offer generic programs; she listens, identifies where a company is today, and crafts a roadmap with clear, achievable goals. Her structured yet adaptable approach ensures long-term success, layering in incentives and engagement strategies that evolve over time.

Her communication tools are equally impressive. The customized spreadsheet she developed—complete with built-in resources and rollout strategies—is unlike anything I’ve seen before. It’s a game-changer for effectively delivering wellness initiatives.

Melissa is redefining what it means to be a wellness consultant, and any organization looking to create a meaningful, sustainable wellness strategy would be fortunate to work with her."

"When I was first asked to take on wellness, I had no clear direction. I was thrown into a meeting with Melissa, unsure of where to start or how to make an impact. Melissa helped me find my footing, providing a clear path forward with ideas that truly benefited our employees.

Since working with Melissa, engagement has increased significantly. Employees now feel comfortable discussing not just wellness but also workplace challenges, building invaluable trust.

Melissa’s enthusiasm is contagious! She provides thoughtful feedback, goes the extra mile, and truly champions your success. I always felt like she was one of my biggest cheerleaders, and that support made all the difference!"

DeeDee J., Leave and Benefits Analyst, Human Resources, City of Springfield, Oregon

"Before working with Melissa, our Wellness Program lacked direction and employee engagement. She helped us define clear goals, create a strategy based on employee needs, and stay focused on making a real impact. Two years later, awareness and satisfaction have increased significantly. Beyond her expertise, Melissa’s support and guidance gave me the confidence to take our program even further. She truly listens, cares, and helps bring your vision to life in a thoughtful and effective way."

Lila H., Human Resource Manager, Lane Transit District

“"Before working with Melissa, our biggest challenge was getting buy-in from leadership—they needed education on the value of our wellness initiatives. Melissa provided that education, helping to shift perspectives and create meaningful support for our efforts.

Melissa’s approach is both caring and thorough. She is an incredible thought partner who not only helps shape ideas but also provides the guidance and expertise needed to turn them into action. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands how to bridge strategy with execution, Melissa is the perfect partner."

James T., Workforce Wellness Manager, Lane County

"Before working with Melissa, our organization was struggling to reinvigorate our wellness programming and coordinate efforts between our various wellness and health providers. We faced challenges with high claim costs, escalating pharmacy expenses, and a growing number of employees managing chronic conditions.

Since partnering with Melissa, our wellness initiatives have expanded significantly, leading to healthier employees and a more holistic, coordinated approach to wellness. She has been an invaluable member of our team—reliable, fast, and creative—bringing insightful data, innovative program ideas, and the support needed to enhance the overall health and wellness of our workforce.

Melissa is friendly, approachable, and results-driven. She meets people where they are on their wellness journey and delivers real, tangible outcomes. If you’re looking for a strategic partner to help shift your culture and improve population health, she is an excellent choice."
