Melissa is an all round artist! She is a freelance Fashion and Costume professional and has been working in the industry for the last 5 years. She has always had a passion for all things theatre which led her to enrol in a Musical Theatre course at Arts Educational Schools 3 years ago. Wanting to go further, she took a couple of years out from work to focus on gaining dance and singing skills through private singing lessons and dance classes to enrol in a full time Musical Theatre course. Melissa is also a trained classical pianist with music reading skills, a seamstress and loves drawing and developing her visual art skills.

Her experience working with children is as a teaching assistant at performing art schools, working with varied age-groups and settings. Melissa’s mission is to nurture and encourage creativity in babies, toddlers and young children.

‘’I believe nurturing creativity and passion to be vital to our mental health and overall wellbeing. Self expression and connection allows us to discover our true selves and my aim would be to encourage self confidence and playfulness.’’
