NICE TO MEET YOU
Hi, I'm Melissa - mom, educator and founder of Capture Greatness.
When I started my career in college access, I believed getting students into college was enough. But I quickly learned the hard truth: even my brightest students were dropping out after a semester or two—not because they couldn’t handle the work, but because they couldn’t afford the cost.
Disheartened by a broken system, I made a vow: I would never send a student to college without a scholarship again.
More than a decade later, I’m proud to say that Capture Greatness has helped students win over $12 million in scholarships and gain admission to top colleges like Yale, UPenn, Cornell, Howard, Morehouse, and many more.
Now, I’m on a mission to make sure sending our kids to college builds a legacy—not a lifetime of debt.
