Melissa Vallone: I Am Barnes & Thornburg

I AM...

• A strong believer that you are responsible for using your skills and talent to make the most of any opportunity or situation
• The youngest of five children and the first in my family to graduate from college
• Married to a wonderful man who stole my heart by making me laugh
• Intensely competitive at board games – Risk anyone?
• Blessed to a be a mom to a son and daughter who have taught me the true meaning of love
• Happiest when hosting and entertaining family and friends
• A budding gardener and amateur bartender – but not at the same time
• A work in progress – current goal is more patience
• Inspired by Barnes & Thornburg women and to name a few: Paula Goedert, Carol Boruta and Caitlin Byczko
