CLIENTTestimonials
Casey King
My first interaction with a brown girl who knew how to work a boardroom was the one and only Melissa Fulmore Hardwick. Not only did she give me an opportunity to spread my wings I’ve seen her mentor, coach and uplift women to their fullest potential. She is the epitome of what it means to “wake up, dress up and show up!
Brittany Wiseman
Having demonstrated genuine concern for my career, Melissa has been pivotal to the woman I am becoming. She has demonstrated the work ethic it requires to be a boss, and the balance you need to keep it all together. She’s a powerful woman who I can have girl talk with, but still holds me accountable. I am forever grateful for the many roles she has played as a part of my village.
