Meredith Kerr

Meredith Kerr earned her B.A. in Journalism from St. Thomas University in 2013 and has worked in radio, print, and online media. She is currently pursuing a Certificate in Creative Writing from the University of Calgary’s School of Continuing Education.
Meredith is an experienced reporter who has called St. Paul home since meeting her husband in 2014. They now have four children together and a very busy but never boring life. An active member of the community, Meredith volunteers her time with Friends of Playschool and the St. Paul Cathedral Parish. Meredith loves being outside, but freely admits “garden” might be a rather strong description for the backyard weed patch she spends most of the spring and summer in.
