Miss Colombia 2011

In the 2011–2012 Miss Colombia pageant edition, Melissa won the Miss Elegance Primatela. She later began to be considered as a favorite for the crown with the representatives from the departments of Valle and Atlántico. On the night of the 14 November in Cartagena She received the second best score at the evening gown gala giving her the right to follow onto the swimsuit phase where she was named first runner-up. The response proved to be safe and direct earning her public confidence and the jury gave her the title of National Beauty Virreina of Colombia 2011–2012, and curiously, last year Lizeth González of Magdalena achieved this position.
