About Me

Hi, I'm Melissa! I first started blogging in 2012 as an assignment for one of my university classes at McGill. I decided to write about my long-time love for coffee and my new found love for fragrances. This blog allowed me to explore new cafes which also doubled up as great study spots. It also helped me learn more about the fragrance world, which I was exposed to when I entered the world of luxury and beauty at my part time job at Etiket. The project grew quickly and stuck with me long after the due date. My assignment soon turned into a hobby and a passion. 

Now, I've graduated university, wrapped up an amazing first job in Montreal, and relocated to New York to continue progressing my career. This updated blog is a platform where I can share all of my favourite cafe discoveries while exploring NYC - the city that I now call home! 

Melissa B Social is an online journal that captures a little piece of me. Thank you all for taking the time to share this with me!
