Meli lives in the North Shore with her husband, three kids (one grown, one in nursing school, and the youngest in high school), and two dogs, including Scout, a 165-pound Daniff who is her not-so-secret best friend and trusty sidekick.

Sports and movement have always been a part of Meli’s life. She was an athlete growing up and has stayed active as an adult. She also raised three swimmers and water polo players, spending countless hours cheering them on from the pool deck.

When she’s not working, you’ll probably find Meli in her happy place, anywhere near water. She sometimes volunteers as a coxswain with a local rowing club that supports breast cancer patients and survivors. Otherwise, she’s likely hiking, practicing yoga, or taking long walks with Scout.

Meli believes movement is more than just exercise. It builds confidence, relieves stress, creates friendships, heals broken hearts, celebrates milestones, and inspires new goals. This belief has shaped her life and is something she has modeled for her children and those around her. It’s also what draws her to this work and fuels her passion for helping others find joy and strength through movement.

She holds a bachelor’s degree in Organizational Management and a master’s in Sport Management with a focus in nonprofit sport. Her career has centered on managing operations in nonprofit and community settings, always grounded in teamwork, resilience, and celebrating every win, no matter the size.

Meli’s philosophy is simple: we are stronger than we think, and movement helps us tap into that strength. Whether you have always seen yourself as an athlete or are just beginning, she is here to support you and cheer you on.

She is excited to be part of the Movement Revolution team, working alongside coaches who help clients feel seen, supported, and celebrated at every stage.

And one fun fact? She and her husband met in culinary school. He became a chef, and she spent years as a pastry chef before her path led her back to the world of sport and wellness. Life does not always move in a straight line, but it often leads to the right place.
