MUSE Global’s Director of Middle and High school, Tressa Wyner, has been a passionate educator and middle school teacher for 20 years. Originally from Minnesota, she obtained her K-8 teaching license and BA in psychology from Hamline University. Tressa joined the MUSE community in 2015 as a middle school homeroom teacher and math teacher. A certified PCM trainer since 2018, Tressa loves to help students (and parents!) learn to communicate clearly and resolve conflicts productively. Over the years, Tressa has assumed various leadership roles at MUSE, most recently becoming director of Middle High in 2023. A true believer in all of MUSE’s 5 Pillars, Tressa feels blessed to work in a school that encourages innovative life-long learners while teaching them to advocate for themselves. She invites MUSE students, teachers, and parents to take risks, play, commit to their convictions, reflect deeply, support each other, and think critically. 

In her free time, Tressa enjoys visiting family in MN, cooking, being outside, and spending time with her husband, three sons, and two dogs.

Alexandra comes to us from Bergen County, New Jersey and currently resides in Long Beach. She is a graduate of West Chester University earning her B.A. in Communication Studies with a Minor in Education. She also attended Montclair State University earning her Masters Degree in School Counseling. Her experience ranges from recruitment and enrollment in admissions to counseling students on bullying, conflict resolutions and character development.

She is no stranger to progressive models of education and is very excited to be joining the MUSE Community!  What she looks forward to most is building lasting relationships with MUSE families and welcoming them with compassion and understanding.

In her free time, Alexandra loves to hike, travel, practice yoga, and cook.

Melissa has been with MUSE since February 2015. Melissa is extremely passionate about MUSE’s mission, vision, and plant based and sustainability practices. When she first heard about MUSE, there were unfortunately no open positions so she started as an unpaid intern. She quickly was promoted and worked her way up throughout the years with the guidance and mentorship of individuals on the Admin Team.

Melissa was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley and attended UCLA where she received a BA in Sociology and Civic Engagement in 2012. Melissa now resides in South Orange County with her husband, 1 year old son and vizsla pup. In her free time she enjoys spending time in nature, going to the beach, running, hiking, reading, cooking and enjoying the company of her family.
