Melody created Wherever I May Roam in 2015 and is still going strong on a host of social channels. She travels the country (and often world) highlighting small towns, plus where to stay, play, & eat while you are there. Cruising and road trips are her specialties. She also freelances for print/digital.

Originally from WV, Melody was an RVer for a year, and now resides in Mesquite, NV — a big move from Vero Beach, FL.

Melody's first book "100 Things to Do in West Virginia Before You Die" came out in 2023. She has a podcast (100 Things WV) to go along with the book.

She and daughter, Taylor, co-own a second blog, Travel the South Bloggers. They host the annual Southern Travelers Explore (#STE) travel conference for bloggers, influencers, & tourism professionals. #STE was previously in Thomasville (GA), Tupelo (MS), Huntsville (AL), & Irving (TX). It will be in Gulf Shores (AL) Feb. 2024.
