Melissa Dassori: Hi, my name is Melissa Dassori. My first name Melissa, my parents gave me that name after my grandfather who had passed away, whose name was Emmanuel. The names were similar. They started with the same letter in Hebrew. And my last name is Dassori, which was actually my husband's last name, and I took his last name when we got married. And it means essentially from Sori or it's an adaptation of from Sori in Italian. And Sori is a little town on the west coast of Italy, near Genoa, that we have visited.
