I've been a part of the Mastermind family for about three years now, and I wouldn't be as focused and confident with my path if I didn't have Mel's guidance along the way. I am forever grateful to the Mastermind team for fostering a community that encourages growth and compassion which has allowed me to grow as an artist, musician, and person. After completing the program, I just couldn't get enough of the information and people I was surrounded by, sol immersed myself in other programs. The knowledge I've gained from all of these programs alone is worth every penny, but the connections I've made with instructors and fellow students are simply priceless.

“I AM A Self Sufficient Creativity Machine!” - You put this thought in my head on your social media for artists class. Ever since I’ve been saying it to myself daily, and writing it in my daily planner journal. I’m so grateful for all the opportunities you’ve provided. I’m always so inspired by the other artists in the Mastermind community.  Mike and Skip changed my life for the best! Thank you for connecting me with new friends. I'm beyond excited to put work into my musical craft and my musical business ideas! I feel 10 times more intelligent, confident, and creative since knowing you I look forward to more fun, musical collaborations and growing together more!

I have participated in several Mastermind programs, all of which have substantially improved my knowledge of the industry and the skills required to succeed. I really enjoyed each class and I look forward to more continuous growth in my artistry. My parents and I appreciate the engagement and support provided by all of the instructors. The whole Mastermind community has encouraged me to strive to become the best artist I can be.

Before I took these courses I told myself I would never be able to produce and market my art without somebody doing it for me... Now l have completed an album created 100% by me and I have successfully released many songs onto Spotify, Apple Music and other platforms. I couldn't have done it without Mastermind. I have met some of my closest friends through this program and have met teachers that I will respect and love until the day I die. At the end of the day, Melissa teaches her students how to be themselves and how to create art that is authentic to you, and as artists and students, that is all we could hope for.
