About Me

My photo
Melissa Maglio
My journey started with two hippie parents and a household packed with history, literature and art. My path has been as widely varied. I am an artist, organizer, teacher, traveler & writer living in New England. I share my life with an equally driven husband, four creative kids, two curious felines and one (and-a-half) super sweet grand(s).

One last clarification--When working as a forensic artist, I got used to signing everything with my maiden name: Clark. Still do, still me!
