Melissa Renninger, Sr. HR Consultant
Melissa has worked in Human Resources in corporate America for 18 years. She jokes with colleagues that if she could write a book about the experiences she has had, it would leave you in shock. She has seen it all.
Melissa is also the owner of Painted Porch HR, where she creates a future of work where human resources is seen by employees and managers as a partner in helping them to be the best version of themselves. She has been labeled by team members as not the typical HR. She wears that statement as a badge of honor.
Melissa currently lives in Red Lion PA with her husband and their four-legged kids (2 dogs, 1 cat). Her family is mostly located on the other side of the state and Illinois, of which she has 3 handsomely adorable nephews that make her heart full. She grew up playing soccer and loves any and all team sports. She still plays soccer to this day. Otherwise you can catch Melissa walking their dogs (Rook & Riley), gardening, watching too much HGTV or DIY videos, or working on the seemingly never-ending house projects.
