Manage episode 286772642 series 2890268
Meet Melanie Allen. Melanie is running for mayor of the great American town of Ocean Springs in 2021. Melanie is a republican with an understanding for community involvement, economic growth, and an unwillingness to sacrifice the sanctities of art for the two previously mentioned topics. While hailing from the northeast, Melanie is a coast native. A born “Maine-iac” Melanie found a love of the coast after a recommendation from a client to engage this wonderful, creative, enigmatic town of Ocean Springs.
Melanie and I talk about our love for the gulf coast. We talk about her experience investing in South Mississippi through her work with the Pascagoula Audubon Center. Historic Ocean Springs Association, and staunch supporter of the cultural impact of Ocean Springs. She has been awarded the Ocean Springs Canopy Award, the Gulf Coast Caring Woman of the Year, Volunteer of the year by the Land Trust organization, as well as the 2019 recipient of the Key to the City of Ocean Springs, presented by Mayor Shae Dobson.
Melanie, from my perspective, is a saint to the City of Ocean Springs. We talk about her politics, her vision, her guiding light, and herself. Melanie is a wonderful human being with an endless empath. I’m honored to have such a talented woman taking on the task of running American’s greatest little town.
Please welcome, Melanie Allen!
