Friends Forever

We have been friends for a VERY long time. We met over 25 years ago when we were both new teachers trying to take on the world. We have been through good times and the bad, and our friendship has only grown closer. We have been there for each other as we balanced professional and personal lives and raised our beautiful children. Over the years we have realized that our friendship has grounded us and allowed us to grow and reach for our dreams. We are living those dreams now as our life-long love of teaching and helping others has pushed us to get out there in the world and reach for the stars. We have been told countless times over the years that we should be on a comedy show . . . well please join us now for our very own comedy show . . . introducing, The Mel and Kel Show!
