ABOUT MELINDA WATTS
The Jersey-born Rutgers University graduate, who earned degrees in sociology and women’s studies
was a California English teacher before venturing out into her Gospel Dream adventure. Long before
Watts stormed the gospel scene with her 2009 release, PEOPLE GET READY (Razor & Tie), she
started Project Sunday, an afterschool program created while working as a teacher in California.
Through daily affirmation and a curricular component, the program was eventually adopted by the
state of California to empower at-risk girls from impoverished areas to break out of the cycles and
patterns that keep them from getting ahead in life.
Now with her much broader international platform, Watts continues to mentor and minister to today's
youth in search of an inspiring role model who can motivate them to live their dreams. Currently
Watts is working on her very first book to be released in the late Fall of 2011, as well as her
sophomore CD.
