A beautiful state lush with greenery widely
popular among people of India and the world is Goa. This beautiful state is a
victim of casinos, and poor decisions which it continues to endure. In an age
where trust is taken for granted, who should
people look up to?
Every state has their own ups and downs, Goa is
no stranger to that. Problems often come with a user manual called solutions,
it is the need of the hour that people take a deep break and meditate upon the
answers.
At a time when a majority of the population
treats Goa as a holiday destination, a new trend is emerging and one of these
trend setters is Melcia Genevieve Lobo, the founder of ‘MGL Creatives’ juggled
with being the lead vocalist in a band called ‘Cascades’, along with being a
partner in a company which organizes events.

A creative venture initiated by Melcia which
would evolve into a company meeting diverse creative needs was started at
approximately 13 or 14 years old. The singer inside her emerged as a result of
performing tracks by herself and performing duets in various hotels further
encouraging her to join a band.

Parents play a vital role in helping their
children take decisions, the same applied to Melcia’s parents who encouraged
her to take the next step by turning her hobby as a source of income. ‘MGL
Creatives’ emerged on the digital platform in the form of Facebook and
Instagram, which evolved into a store in 2019, offering a wide range of
products. Adding a website to the mix just proves Melcia's brilliance

A
significant entry in Melcia’s increasing achievements is that she won the
runners up for 'Goencho Avaz' in 2017. 'Goencho Avaz' is a platform for young talent like Melcia to showcase their talent in Konkani. In the current scenario where hope is rapidly
fading from the Goan dictionary, Melcia is a roaring tiger who has lessons to
teach youngsters around the globe. Hope is not lost when young Goa shows the
world it can be much more than a tourist destination, ending the stereotypes it
had to endure in the past. Goa sees hope in people like Melcia.
