Melissa Trombetta is a wife, mother of two teenagers, and a long-standing member of corporate America. While she is both a mom and an accountant, she strives not to dress like either. Writing in her free time and dancing at country music festivals like her kids aren’t standing next to her are her guilty pleasures. Many of the stories in I Thought I Knew were ripped from her personal headlines, helping her build resilience and candor, which she hopes to have only added to her character.
