Alumni Spotlight: Melody Finley | Class of 2024

Melody launched Mental Health Matters during her time in CEO, a business dedicated to advocating for mental health awareness and helping end the stigma around mental illness. Her passion for helping others was clear then and it continues today.

She began her career as a CNA at an assisted living facility in Litchfield, Illinois, where she was recently promoted to Assistant Administrator. Melody plans to continue advancing in the healthcare field and hopes to return to school soon to pursue her RN license.

“The program taught me how to better myself and grow to my full potential. It taught me how to speak to others and helped me work on my time management skills.”

“In five years, I see myself as a registered nurse, being happier than ever and living life to the fullest.”
