Melissa Garlock
combining and pursing my passions for
peforming and journalism
hi there!
My name is Melissa Garlock. I attend Point Park University. I am on track to graduate in 2028 with a Masters in
Public Relations,
Advertisement and Social Media, and a BFA in Dance (Jazz Concentration), with a Double Minor in Digital Journalism and Musical Theater.


My "WhY"
Dance and journalism may seem like two different worlds, but for me, they are deeply connected. As a dancer, I tell stories through movement, expressing emotions that words cannot capture. As a journalist, I bring stories to life through writing, shedding light on the people, cultures, and experiences that shape our world. My passion for both has led me to explore the intersection of movement and storytelling, using each to inspire, inform, and connect with others. Through this platform, I hope to share my journey, insights, and the beauty of storytelling—whether through words or dance.
I am excited to begin my career as a professional dancer and media coverage for performers. Dance is one of the most beautiful yet broken industries, and by working from the inside out I will an make an impact.
