Meredith is the Development Associate for WRI-US. In coordination with the WRI Global Development team, she works with directors and managers across all WRI-US workstreams to design fundraising strategies, cultivate relationships with donors, identify new funding opportunities, write proposal and pitch materials, and facilitate internal development processes.
Prior to joining WRI, Meredith supported the development, operations and fundraising initiatives of Collective Impact, a politically progressive start up that helps high profile individuals use their social followings for good. Before moving fully into development and operations, Meredith worked as a freelance theatrical designer and educator at arts and culture institutions like Princeton University, MacArthur Theatre, and Stages Repertory Theatre.
