Hi, I’m Melissa L. Oliver. I was born and raised on the southside of Chicago. I attended a Catholic Grammar School, Jesuit High School, and Christian Brothers College (undergrad), and a Public College (grad school). I feel I am well rounded and have had my share of taking on the struggles of dealing with life on life’s terms. My parents both raised me from birth until their separation and divorce when I was 10 years of age. I was then solely raised by my mother who struggled to make ends meet while trying to give me the best childhood ever. I am now a single, middle-aged professional who loves to help others achieve their goals, make the best out of every situation, and feel their best and most comfortable no matter what in any environment. I love empowering people and assisting them in keeping a smile on their face and laughter in their hearts. I accept almost any challenge and try to find the silver linings in almost everything.
