“Melizsa is my master trainer for Dale Carnegie training and I have to say that she reached into me and developed me more than I ever thought possible. Melizsa is simply amazing, on one of my training days I was struggling and she could tell. Melizsa took me aside and simply let me talk and vent about what was wrong. She truly listened to me like no one has ever done. After that she guided me in the completion of my training. Melizsa has the ability to look at situations and people and lead them to their fullest potential. I would recommend Melizsa to anyone for leadership and development. It was such an honor to be able to learn from her and develop who I can be and I am also honored to call her my friend. ”
