About Melyssa

Professional Background:

I have over 5 years of experience in travel nurse recruiting, as well as in management and leadership roles, which have strengthened my ability to support both nurses and teams. I’ve handled everything from staffing tough specialties and facilities to guiding a team of recruiters, giving me a well-rounded understanding of the industry.

What Do You Love—or Get Most Excited About—In Recruitment?

I get most excited about matching a nurse with an assignment that truly fits their life. Helping someone move toward the career and lifestyle they want is the best part of this job.

What Does the Nursing/Allied Industry Mean to You?

The nursing industry means the world to me as it is built on compassion, grit, and real human connection. Nurses show up for people on their hardest days, and I take a lot of pride in supporting the professionals who carry that weight.

Personal Background:

I’m a California native, die-hard 49er fan, beach lover, and outdoor adventurer- usually with my dog Buddy. When I’m not out exploring, you’ll find me at a concert or unwinding with a good detective drama.

 

I've been a travel nurse for eight years and working with Melyssa over the past year has been an absolute game-changer. She's incredibly responsive, organized, and genuinely cares about finding the right fit for me. From the start, she’s made the entire process—from contract negotiation to onboarding—smooth and stress-free. I'm currently on my second contract with her and couldn’t be happier with the support I’ve received. It’s clear she goes above and beyond for her nurses. I truly appreciate her dedication and highly recommend her to any travel nurse looking for a reliable and supportive recruiter.
