I've had the pleasure of working with Meredith on a number of projects and I'm glad that I have the opportunity to learn from her as we work towards unifying goals. Meredith's enthusiasm to find opportunities for success is engaging and refreshing. Being a sustainability professional puts you face to face with some very real world challenges, but you can trust Meredith to find solutions that work for everyone. She has a deep understanding of many diverse topics and the big picture. Together we can create a better world for all!

I've worked with Meredith for the last 9 months, I've found her to be hard-working, enthusiastic team player. She is a fast learner and competent contributor. She is able to take direction and work autonomously, as well as collaboratively towards team goals. One of her best assets is her positive attitude and demeanor, which is infectious in the workplace. I believe she will make a great addition to any organisation.
