Meredith is truly Amazing!! She has her pulse on all things Digital and makes it so easy to learn and implement - Hire Meredith!!!

Kelly Ball

I recently booked Meredith to provide corporate training to a group of B2B sales and marketing professionals focused on mobile photography and videography. Her session exceeded my expectations and our group had a wonderful time! We enjoyed learning technical terms and best practices, receiving step-by-step instructions for getting the most out of our mobile camera settings, and taking test photos on the spot with our colleagues. We all walked away much better equipped to use the powerful cameras already in our pockets, for both professional and personal use. I'm excited to see all of the high-quality photos and videos our team will capture as a result of her training session. I highly recommend hiring Meredith for your corporate training needs!
