Her brother, Miguel, Jr., who is also a San Bernardino High School graduate, attended San Bernardino Valley College but is now looking at other career opportunities. She has one pet, a Chihuahua named Jake. Melissa had great concerns when she was assigned to San Bernardino High School because most of her friends went to another school in the district; however, she has had great years there because the teachers genuinely care about the students. Melissa states that the positive friendships she has in San Bernardino have contributed to her excellent years. Melissa is the president of the Academic Decathlon Team, is a member of the National Honors Society and the Key Club. When not studying or participating in her clubs, and going to Cal State, Melissa volunteers at school by recruiting students to be a part of the AVID program and by setting up for sports events, especially track.
