Meredith’s career path has traversed the worlds of fine chocolate, coffee, teaching, information technology,  office and event support for the Cornell University Library and the Lab of Atomic and Solid State Physics. She earned a PhD in Victorian literature along the way which has led to an ongoing passion for writing. Outside of work, she writes, gardens, runs lots of tabletop roleplaying games, and reads stacks of novels. She is a devoted believer in learning where you live.
