Melissa Heideman - Top 10

1.Tell us why anyone would want come to your hometown?
My family is my pride and joy. They are by far my best accomplishment. No task is more challenging and rewarding as parenting my daughters, Isabella and Sophia. They keep me grounded and joyful. I also take great pride in my partnership in love and life with my husband, Dan.

2.What are the (2) most important things in your closet and why?
I would have to say my hero and role model is Oprah Winfrey. She is living proof that a woman can succeed at anything. I had the opportunity to meet her a few years ago when I was chosen to be a guest on her show discussing work/life/balance.

3.What do you love to cook and why?
My dearest possession is the Master's Degree I earned from the University of Denver . This was an accomplishment that reflects my hard work to education. It allowed me to establish a career path and afforded me the opportunities with renowned companies like Johnson & Johnson and Boston Scientific.

4.If you had an extra hour each day, what would you do?
My beloved grandfather Smith nicknamed me “Maggie” at a very young age-short for “Magpie”. I have been a chatterbox since I could talk! I thoroughly enjoy people, engaging in conversation, and sharing stories and experiences. It makes me who I am!

5.Describe the dirtiest job you have ever had to do?
Fall is my all-time favorite time of the year. Both of my beautiful daughters are October babies and Colorado is so beautiful in the fall- the colors are breathtaking-Maple trees especially. I love the magic of the leaves turning and the spirit of the Halloween season!
