A bit about Mellisa:
Mellisa is originally from Alberta but grew up in a small town in Ontario with her mom, sister and brother. She got her first job when she was 10 years old, delivering the local news paper. Mellisa grew up eating soy margarine, wonder bread and food bank donations, which affected her in many ways good and bad. She's extremely curious about human existence and has been pondering the meaning of life since she was 4 years old. This has led her down an interesting path of self-discovery to eventually become an entrepreneur in the food industry.
