Bronwyn Graves

I was Meaghan's manager in her capacity as coordinator of Historica Canada's program, The Memory Project. During her time working on the project, Meaghan demonstrated excellent organization and leadership skills, as the head of a small team. Her passion for her work and her dedication to the program's stakeholders (teachers, students and veterans) was commendable; she truly cared about the experience of our veteran speakers as they visited schools. Meaghan's passion for history and museum education runs deep, which made her an enthusiastic and committed member of our team.
