Melissa was delighted to be speaking at her alumni, the University of Southern Maine, along with two other brilliant women: Dr. Jacqueline Edmondson, USM President; and Jennifer Hutchins, Executive Director of Maine Association of Nonprofits. With their wealth of experience and insight, these inspiring women are a perfect representation of how to lead through strength, unity, and purpose.
2025 Women in Leadership event, “All Together Now?” was a powerful conversation about coming together to lead through uncertain times.
Hosted at the McGoldrick Center for Career & Student Success in Portland, ME, the event was free to attend with an optional donation.
