Idea girl, artist, book snob and creator of Get the Fork Out food blog, Melissa is an urban wannabe, lover of wine with an obsession of all things cuisine.  Her talents started at a young age but developed as a photography major at Columbia College Chicago and later were expanded from her on-set experience. With many twists and turns working as a photo assistant, photographer, graphic designer and moonlighting as a wannabe chef in her free time in and around the city, she packed her bags and left for the bright lights of Detroit.
