Melissa Martinez

Registrar

Melissa has deep ties to both Boyle Heights and to the Neighborhood Music School. She attended Roosevelt High School and graduated in 2014. While a freshman in high school, she worked for the Boyle Heights Beat community newspaper. Her second feature story, in 2011, was about our school. She spent the next year and a half taking lessons here at NMS, and has remained a faithful volunteer until joining the staff, first as an LA County Intern focused on bringing summer programming to NMS. She continued as a Program Assistant, and is now the full-time Registrar for NMS.

She loves traveling and hopes to travel to every single continent one day. Melissa has two younger siblings and currently lives in East Los Angeles.
