Hi, I'm Melanie, a griever looking to create community and prove loneliness wrong when it comes to mourning.
I've experienced a number of significant deaths over the past five years. My dad died in 2019 and since loosing him, I've sought out friendships with others who get grief. Meeting folks of all ages has inspired me to further this community; I currently host and attend grief groups via @thedinnerparty and am the host of Death of the Party NYC.
Besides talking about death, I enjoy life by volunteering at a thrift store, being creative, beekeeping, and traveling. My favorite place in NYC is Governor's Island!
