Born in Lafayette, LA but raised in Beaumont, TX, Melvin L. Williams was right on course and following his dream when he entered the United States Marine Corps in 1990. He would eventually move to Washington, D.C. before choosing to make his home in Virginia where, after becoming a certified massage therapist, he founded Spirit Massage and Bodywork, in 2001. ??I love helping people. I became a massage therapist to offer a holistic care service, to rehabilitate patients and lessen the ??aches and pains? for people in this high paced society,? Williams states. It??s not the first time he??s helped others; he also volunteered at a homeless and drug rehabilitation center, where he enjoyed teaching residents basic computer skills. Even as a child, he enjoyed making seasonal collages for his community.
Melvin??s insatiable curiosity for life keeps him in constant study. Currently attending George Mason University, he is going for his BS in Biology with a concentration in Biotechnology, in Fairfax, VA. This multifaceted young man chose to add a book to his repertoire is no surprise; from the time he was very young, Melvin has always loved art, music, and creative writing. His mother encouraged him to use the arts as a creative outlet. So, in 6th grade, Melvin joined the band and he played trombone. At the age of 17, he began writing both romantic and socially motivated poetry for West Brook Sr. High School??s magazine, Mirrors, but a tragedy occurred when he lost his first collection to a crashed hard drive. It wasn??t until 2002 that he started a new poetry collection.
