CONCORD, N.H. — Our ROC USA® team is growing.
On Tuesday, Melissa Proulx started as our digital media manager. Melissa will run our social media pages and help out with myROCUSA.org. She’ll help share not only what, but how ROC USA does what we do.
“I’m thrilled to be here and help promote the great work ROC USA does to make positive changes in people’s lives,” she said.
Melissa will be working with Mike Bullard, communications and marketing manager.
“We’re really excited to have Melissa here,” he said. “We’ve heard from ROC leaders that they want more help on the communications front and her skills align with not only we’re doing today, but how we want to expand our efforts moving forward.”
Prior to joining ROC USA, Melissa worked five years as a reporter throughout New Hampshire, covering the good, the bad and the wacky.

She’s also written for other publications in the state including the New Hampshire Business Review, the Keene Sentinel, Seacoast Weddings Magazine and the Exeter Newsletter.
In 2014, Melissa was a Carsey Social Innovation intern at the Business Review. While there, she reported on the work socially responsible organizations and businesses do to solve real world problems.
Melissa graduated from the University of New Hampshire in 2015 and earned a bachelor’s degree in English/Journalism. While there, she was the crime reporter for The New Hampshire, the school’s weekly paper.
