Melanie manages and coordinates OFS’ network of emergency food distribution partners, which helps feed 200,000 individuals every month. The network includes food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, transitional homes and community organizations located in 30 Missouri and Illinois counties.

Before coming to Operation Food Search, Melanie earned her Master of Public Administration and Executive Master of International Business from Saint Louis University. Additionally, she received a Harvard University Online Certification for Family Engagement in Education. Melanie has volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Eastern Missouri while also serving on the Board of Directors and as a Policy Council Representative for the YWCA.

In her free time, Melanie enjoys going to the movies, traveling and dining out with family and friends. She loves to learn about other cultures as well.

From Melanie: “Food is a part of our basic needs; working with OFS allows me to serve individuals who don’t have access to a supply of food. I’m allowed to supply their needs through a distribution network into the communities.”
