Background
As a technical writer, Meredith is an expert at translating complicated jargon into easy-to-read, digestible content. Combined with her passion for personal finance, she uses her technical writing skills to decode the complexities of saving money and investing to help women take control of their finances.
Meredith's mission is to help give other women the support she didn't have in her early 20s. A self-taught investor and entrepreneur, Meredith quit her desk job and replaced 85% of her 9-to-5 salary within a year working just part-time hours. She then set off to travel as a digital nomad and share her tips on financial wellness and freelancing.
Alongside contributing to Clever Girl Finance, Meredith also writes and manages A Merry Loner, the newsletter encouraging people to create their own happiness no matter what life is like.
