For more than two decades, Melissa Rayworth has been exploring the building blocks of modern life -- the ways we parent, love, lead, design our living spaces and interact with the culture in our marketing-saturated society -- as a writer for regional, national and global media outlets, as well as for charitable foundations and nonprofits. She's also an experienced managing editor of online and print magazines, and works privately with clients to help them discover and use their personal stories to elevate their lives. After several years living and working in Asia, Melissa currently splits her time between New York and Pittsburgh.
