Hi, I’m Melissa, a licensed Medicare insurance agent with six years of experience helping Texans in the Houston area and Huntsville plan confidently for retirement. I focus on full retirement planning, which means I don’t just look at your health insurance—I help you understand how Medicare fits into your overall retirement picture, including timing, costs, and long‑term security.

I specialize in Medicare Advantage (Part C), Medicare Supplement (Medigap), and Part D prescription drug plans, and I work with multiple carriers so I can compare options and recommend what truly fits your needs and budget. My approach is simple: listen first, explain everything in plain language, and never use high‑pressure sales tactics. You’ll always know your options, your costs, and why a plan makes sense for you.

Many of my clients are adults turning 65, retirees reviewing their coverage each year, and family members helping a parent navigate Medicare. I’m proud to be a trusted, local resource for seniors and their families across northwest Houston and Huntsville.

If you’re approaching 65, changing plans, or just want a second opinion on your current coverage, I’m here to help.

Please mention you found me on Medicare Agents Helpline to help support more kids with cancer ❤️

I had the best experience with Melissa. She was so helpful and put my mind at ease she matched me with the best choice for me and canceled the program I had chose previously from another company. Melissa made me feel so comfortable and was able to talk about other issues. I would highly recommend her and her company. Thank you so much for everything you did. Linda

Melissa was exceptional in helping my husband and I navigate the Medicare/Medicare advantage waters. She clarified pros and cons and did not pressure us at all. We will definitely seek her expertise in making our future insurance decisions.

Melissa is a sweetheart. I originally went to one of her seminars at Huntsville Library then I set up an in-home consultation. She walked me through the process of signing up for Social Security and Medicare. She literally signs on with you and helps you complete the process. She is so fast at it since she does it all the time. I may have been able to do it, but she knows her stuff and it made it so much easier and I wasn't questioning myself about doing it right or wrong. She listens to your needs and doesn't try to upsell you on coverage you don't need or want. Would definitely recommend and there is no fee!

I first met Melissa when I signed up for her information class on Medicare. Melissa was amazing, friendly, good communication, very knowledgeable. I scheduled an appointment to meet with her. She came to my house, which was over an hour drive for her and on the day before Thanksgiving, to meet with me and discuss my options and answer my questions. I felt very comfortable and signed up with her immediately. I have no problem recommending her.
