About Melissa Kahn
With more than 25 years managing finances, including 9 years as owner of On Solid Ground Daily Money Management, Melissa has the experience to develop and implement practical, realistic solutions for her clients' financial needs. Her MBA from the Yale School of Management provides her with broad, solid skills that allow her to analyze her clients' situations in a comprehensive manner. Her experiences as the chief financial officer for an affordable housing corporation and as consultant and business manager to local small businesses and nonprofits enable her to size up new clients' needs quickly, and to work effectively with a diverse clientele.
Melissa enjoys working in one-on-one relationships, and she brings a calm, supportive presence and warm personality to her interactions with clients. She is detail-oriented and follows through with financial issues until they are resolved. Colleagues have remarked on Melissa's abilities to gracefully bring order out of messy and complicated situations. Melissa's earlier experiences in direct service with adults with intellectual disabilities and with refugees helped her become proficient at explaining concepts in simple terms and in teaching new skills. The patience and creativity she needed came easily to her, and led her to develop strategies for explaining and teaching that she continues to use with clients today. Knowing that there is no "one size fits all" daily money management program, Melissa works with clients to determine the specific assistance they need, while developing relationships based on trust and respect. Melissa is a member of the American Association of Daily Money Managers. |
