Meghan designs job-embedded professional learning opportunities to meet the needs and optimize the performance of a team.

This allows for creative problem-solving, expanded inclusivity, and systemic improvement.

She is a bilingual Speech Language Pathologist who specializes in Autism, ADHD, social communication, executive function, assistive technology, and learning differences.
