Victoria Martin • April 22, 2026

Rooted in Mooresville. Driven by purpose. Committed to people.

A Local Heart for Serving Others

Melissa Simmons is proud to call Mooresville home—both where she was raised and where she continues to build her life today. Her deep connection to the community gives her a unique perspective and a genuine passion for helping others find not just a house, but a place to truly belong.



From the Classroom to Closing Tables

Before stepping into real estate, Melissa spent 20 years as a dedicated high school science teacher. Her time in education sharpened her ability to communicate clearly, think on her feet, and guide others through complex situations with confidence and care. She has worked with individuals from all walks of life, building strong, meaningful relationships rooted in trust and respect—skills that now serve her clients every step of the way.



A Strong Foundation in Education & Growth

Melissa holds a Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science and a Master of Public Health in Nutrition (Dietetics). Her academic background reflects her commitment to discipline, continuous learning, and attention to detail—qualities that translate seamlessly into her real estate career.



Guided by Integrity, Focused on You

At the heart of Melissa’s approach is a simple but powerful belief: always do the right thing, no matter how hard it may be. She is passionate about helping others achieve their goals and finds true fulfillment in seeing people succeed. Whether working with buyers or sellers, Melissa is committed to creating a supportive, positive experience from start to finish.



Life Beyond Real Estate

Outside of work, Melissa lives an active and balanced lifestyle. She enjoys playing on local tennis teams, running and hiking trails, and spending time at the gym. At home, she shares life with her daughter, who is currently in graduate school, and Arrakis—their energetic one-year-old cattle dog/German shepherd mix.




A Heart to Make a Difference

Melissa lives by the words of Margaret Mead:
"Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For indeed, that's all who ever have."

Her passion for people, commitment to growth, and heart for service make her an incredible addition to our team. We are excited to see the impact she will have on her clients and our community.



Welcome, Melissa—we’re so glad you’re here!

We are beyond excited to officially welcome Logan Shoemaker to the True North Realty family! Logan was born and raised in Statesville, North Carolina, and her love for this community runs deep. Growing up here shaped her appreciation for small-town values, meaningful relationships, and the importance of serving others with intention. It’s always special when we get to welcome someone who is passionate about giving back to the very place that helped raise them — and Logan embodies that beautifully.
