We should talk:
Hi, I’m Meredith. I’m a people-centered project steward, community-builder, and strategic creative. I bring heart to systems, elegance to operations, and insight to moments of transition - in organizations, in people, and in myself.
I’ve led everything from emergency response protocols at a Jewish day school to first grade sacred play, from NYC venue sales to LA educational culture-building. At my core, I’m a listener, an integrator, and a gentle force for momentum.
People thrive where trust and clarity meet.
High standards can still be warm.
Play is sacred. So is follow-through.
Conflict is information. Ritual is regulation.
Being the “glue” is a superpower, not an afterthought.
I’ve worked in startups, schools, and mission-driven organizations — always at the intersection of operations, culture, and experience. I’ve been the person who translates between departments, builds clarity where there’s chaos, and turns emotional intelligence into infrastructure. Whether I’m crafting onboarding systems or leading multi-departmental projects, I bring care, creativity, and calm under pressure.
I’ve worked behind the scenes and in the spotlight. I’ve planned events for hundreds and welcomed the one person who showed up lost. I know how to anticipate needs, notice what others miss, and make spaces feel intentional — not just functional.
Some snapshots of what that looks like:
Park Day Magic
When our school’s field day needed a reset, I redesigned the event from the ground up. With clear signage, fun stations, and re-energized volunteers, we created an experience that was joyful for students and logistically smooth for staff. Parents left saying, “This was the most organized it’s ever been.”
Onboarding with Heart
Our substitute teachers were arriving lost, under-supported, and invisible. I created a new onboarding checklist (parking, kashrut meals, clocking in) plus welcome rituals that made them feel like part of the community. Morale rose, and subs started asking to come back.
