HI! I'm Meghan

Things You Actually Want to Know

  • I’m not crazy about writing bios.

  • I have a Masters in Advertising and Public Relations, Masters in Elementary Education, and a Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Teaching, Schools, and Society.

  • Yes, I will be paying student loans for the rest of my life. Worth it.

  • I have taught first, third, and fourth grades and served as a K-6 mathematics coach.

  • I went to Alabama, so I'm an Alabama fan. You have been warned.

  • I'm proud to have served two years as a full-time School Ambassador Fellow at the U.S. Department of Education.

  • I blogged for Scholastic for 6 years, but am quite lax about personal blogging.

  • I'm not sure what I want to do when I grow up.

  • Things I don’t like: running, roller coasters, and snakes.

  • Things I do like: books, good paper products, painting, travel, museum gift shops, houndstooth, jeans weather, olives, crafts, homemade Halloween costumes, gold stars, elephants, dogs, good organization, dining out, and the color blue.
