Melissa Martin
Web Journalist
I hold a BA degree in Journalism and Media studies from UNLV. I freelance write intermittently.
I am working towards my RN license, and then on to MSN.
My husband, Tim Martin, is a freelance photographer and photojournalist for KXLY. Together we are passionate about taking the road less traveled and showing hope when you think there is none. We have a huge heart for Haiti and many have supported us in our journey to be reunited with our little ones still there.
