Melissa Griffin is a Georgia native and a graduate of Cornell Law School. After living in New York for several years, she moved to San Francisco in 2004. After working at Jones Day (a top law firm) for two years, she went in-house as an employment counsel for Bechtel Corporation in 2006. While working at Bechtel, she began writing about local politics and legal cases on a blog she created – www.thesweetmelissa.com. Melissa’s work appeared in a number of local publications in 2007, and in 2008 she was offered a position as a columnist for the San Francisco Examiner. She enthusiastically accepted and published two to three articles each Thursday as a freelance writer for the Examiner. Melissa is currently a freelance writer for the Examiner and is also co-host of webcast "The Necessary Conversation".  In addition to appearances on television and radio, Melissa is a frequent public speaker at community events and organizations. She will join us at the Golden Gate Breakfast Club to discuss her perspective on the recent election in San Francisco and ranked choice voting.
