Melanie was born and raised in Illinois along the Wisconsin border. Even before law school, she knew she wanted to represent injured people and helped start the first undergraduate mock trial team at Northern Illinois University in her junior year.
After graduating from Indiana University-Bloomington in 2016, she moved to Colorado and immediately started working at a personal injury firm. She cut her teeth working on cases that became some of the largest verdicts in their respective jurisdictions, and her teammates would refer to her as the “toy bulldog” for being tiny but mighty.
In her free time, Melanie likes spending time with her husband, their two border collies and cats. In her free time she enjoys camping, hiking, music, and of course…eating delicious food.
