ABOUT CALIBRATE

Currently, Meg is pursuing her Anti-Boring Coaching Certification with Gretchen Wegner, a leader and innovator in the Academic Coaching space. Meg is thrilled to bring her own experience and expertise as well as Gretchen’s groundbreaking program to bear in Calibrate Academic Coaching’s two prong approach (for more information on Gretchen Wegner’s Anti-Boring Approach to Studying, visit:  www.antiboringlearninglab.com).

When Meg isn’t coaching or talking about coaching and instruction, you can find her enjoying a cup of coffee, reading, cooking, or spending time with her family and friends both here in Boulder, CO and on the East coast. Meg spent her first forty years in Connecticut, New Hampshire, Boston, Virginia, and New York City, so even though she’s lived in Boulder for 11 years, if you ask her where she’s from, she’ll probably still say ‘the East Coast’. Meg, her husband Ted and her daughter Tessa are also animal lovers and advocates for animal rescue, and if you know Meg, then you’ve certainly heard about her rescue pup, Rosie. Meg, Ted and Tessa love to travel when they can swing it, and this summer’s outing to South Korea and Japan was the trip of a lifetime-be sure to ask her about it!
