Melanie started with 71Five as the coordinator for the Phoenix/Talent Campus Ministry, which was an eventful and joyous time. After going through some big life changes and difficult times, Melanie stepped down from the coordinator role and has transitioned into working more behind the scenes in an administrative specialist role. Her love for this ministry and bringing the hope of Jesus to young people runs deep. Melanie became a follower of Jesus when she was 18 and is grateful every day for God’s goodness and saving grace. 

 

She has a beautiful baby girl that is a bright light in her life. In her free time, Melanie enjoys spending time with her daughter, having good conversations with family and friends, reading, doing art, doing anything active, and being outdoors.
