My name is Michelle Alessi and I am so excited to be assisting Mrs. Lewis. I am starting my 15th year as a paraprofessional, but this will be my first year at Greenbrier. I have assisted in K4-5th grade. My family and I moved to Greenville in the summer of 2023 from Long Island, NY where I was born and raised. I graduated from UMass Amherst with a Bachelor’s in Accounting, however, I changed paths from the corporate world to elementary education which is where I’m meant to be. I love my job and strive to make a positive difference in each of my students’ lives. My husband and I have two amazing daughters who both attend Clemson. I like to hike, travel, work out, watch sports (especially Clemson games) and spend time with my family and friends. I’m really looking forward to a wonderful 2025-26 school year!
