One would assume that by her winning smile, Melissa Strong could simply rest on her unique prettiness. However, the challenge of being born and raised in Toronto, Canada as the daughter of strict, successful Caribbean parents has reinforced in her the importance of commitment and perseverance together with generosity and gratitude. There are rewards to be gained by shooting high, even if sometimes you may miss, and Melissa is a living endorsement to the value of elegance and panache. Within seconds of meeting this petite beauty, one will realize that she is much more than a pretty face.
Melissa's wide variety of talent ranges from Drama, Comedy, Stand up, Reality TV, Theatre, Hosting and Writing. Her level of comedic timing and presence on stage shows her innocent, yet thin line between love and hate acting ability.
A former pageant Queen, marketing manager and fashion stylist, Melissa has made tremendous strides towards achieving her dreams. Be it washing dishes in her high heels or crocheting pink scarves for the Breast Cancer Foundation, one thing to know about Melissa is that her life is never routine nor predictable. She continues to keep herself busy by giving back, investing time into causes she believes in. In balancing her charity work with her steadfast career focus and undeniable lust for the spotlight, she finds inspiration in authors such as Dr. Wayne Dyer and Oprah Winfrey. "You shouldn't live life with a catcher's mitt, you need to throw something back" by Maya Angelou, is one of her favorite mottoes.
Melissa is a living oxymoron, and therefore not easily described in a few words. She is a Virgo, a perfectionist almost to a fault, but also very accepting of the flaws of her peers. She is extremely open and honest, yet a certain air of mystery always remains. She is wickedly sarcastic, yet deeply compassionate and an avid dog lover. Melissa is that rare individual who combines a peaceful nature with an aversion to passiveness. She may not welcome adversity be she never willingly allows herself to be anyone's victim. "Don't tempt me with a good time", she will often say when threatened or challenged.
