Even as a kid, Melissa wouldn’t quit.

In the early days of her career, Melissa wasn’t doing that wellwhile chasing her acting dreams in Hollywood. After moving to L.A., she quickly learned how tough the entertainment industry can be for a Jersey girl. Even though she had some promising auditions and small movie roles, her big break was still out of reach. She tried her hand at theater but soon realized Los Angeles was not the best place for that simply because not many people would attend the plays. The actress’s early years were filled with disappointments, including roles in movies that were never released and even a failed attempt at modeling.
