The Glow Girl

ature and will share images of people, places, and things that will inspire you. I will also make product suggestions that are useful and will save you time researching what is best. My passion has always been to share my discoveries with other women to enhance their every day life. Whether it's advice on what new bag to buy and how to wear it, where to go on vacation, selecting the perfect lipstick, or trying the most effective workouts, think of me as your new best friend! I have over 10 years of experience as a lifestyle expert and appeared on TV as contributor for NBC’s Today Show and Weekend Today in New York, New York Live, Better.TV, Fox’s Good Day New York, and others. I love interviewing celebrities on the red carpet, sharing my gift guides and offering tips on my favorite fashion, beauty and lifestyle products. I am also an OpenSky insider with close to 300,000 followers. I have also been featured in and written for several online and traditional print publications, including People StyleWatch and Hamptons Magazine. PageDaily, my online lifestyle magazine has now become an archive and offers a wealth of information for the best in beauty, fashion and living. Check out its "insider" celebrity and expert tips, tricks and product pick through articles, interviews, and videos. I graduated from Syracuse University and started my career as an Associate Director in the Marketing Department of Bear Stearns planning national and international conferences and events. I was definitely an anomaly there with my short skirts, high heels and face of make-up. I always had a love for journalism and did lots of writing, editing, and proof-reading while at the firm. As a hobby, I was blogging about my favorite restaurants and places to go in NYC. After having children, I realized that Wall Street was not my calling and started AskMelissa, a lifestyle resource and newsletter. I am a big believer that leading a happy life is about finding something you are passionate about and sharing it with others. Balance and surrounding yourself with quality people are so important too. Besides eating yummy meals with my husband, children and close friends, I love spending time outside. I enjoy tennis, horseback riding, hiking, spinning, skiing, and stand-up paddle boarding at the beach (relocating to LA from NYC was a dream come true). My husband is extremely supportive of me and all my endeavors, and we have two amazing teenage children and an adorable shih tzu, Cinnamon. I am so excited to share all my best-kept fashion, beauty and lifestyle secrets with you. I hope you enjoy my personally curated blog and look forward to your comments!
