Autorenporträt
Meg Busse has been the High School and College Coordinator for Idealist.org since early 2007. Along with creating resources like The Idealist Guide to Nonprofit Careers, she works with career professionals and guidance counselors to connect students with opportunities in the nonprofit sector. She also presents at conferences across the country on a variety of nonprofit-related topics. Before joining the Idealist team, Meg earned her B.A. in English from Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia, PA and went on to work as an educator and coach in independent schools on the East and West Coasts. She has been an active participant in the nonprofit sector for as long as she can remember. Meg currently lives in Portland, OR, and she serves on the board of directors for the nonprofit environmental arts magazine The Bear Deluxe, writes curricula for educational organizations, and continues to edit and write grants for several local and national nonprofits. These experiences have provided an incredibly deep appreciation for the vision, passion, and dedication of those who work in the nonprofit sector, as well as a firm belief in the potential for change that underlies it all.
