Hi, I'm Melissa A. Delavida

Though I am an introvert at heart, I actually enjoy public speaking. I like using my writing chops to put together a speech. I like breaking down the speech to determine pace, voice and movement. I like practicing it to fine tune it. But most of all, I love when all the tingling nerves just disappear as I deliver my speech. It's my years of acting training in high school and college shining through. And yes, as an introvert, I am always exhausted when the speech is done.
