Hi, I’m Anisa

Welcome to Meliora Consulting, a place that's deeply personal to me, where we're committed to making a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals with disabilities. "Meliora," which means "Better" in Latin, is more than just a name; it's a reflection of our relentless pursuit of a more inclusive and empowering world.

A Little About Me:

I'm Anisa Whittemore, and I'm not just the founder of Meliora Consulting; I'm also someone who's profoundly passionate about the work we do here. My journey has taken me through corporate America, where I honed my skills in business development, strategic planning, and leadership. But it's my heart to serve and help others that truly drives me.

Education and Credentials:

I’ve had the privilege of earning an MBA, which has equipped me with a solid foundation in business strategies and leadership. Additionally, I proudly hold the esteemed designation of a "Work Incentive Practitioner (WIP-C)," a certification I obtained from Cornell University's Institute on Employment and Disability. This credential signifies my specialized expertise in navigating the intricate landscape of work incentives and disability-related benefits. My commitment to continuous learning extends to staying at the forefront of industry trends and leveraging this knowledge to better serve our clients at Meliora Consulting.

Life's Greatest Joys:

Outside of work, I find immense joy in spending quality time with my husband, embarking on adventures with our dog, and creating cherished memories with friends and loved ones. Laughter is one of life's greatest gifts, and I'm all about enjoying every moment.

A Heart That Inspires:

My deep-seated passion for making a positive difference in people's lives is what inspires everything we do at Meliora Consulting. It fuels our commitment to a person-centered approach, informed choice, integrity, inclusion, and empowerment.
