Meghan Casey

Content Strategist
Meghan Casey

Meghan Casey is The Nerdery's first official content strategist. She ventured away from Brain Traffic, the world’s leading agency devoted exclusively to content, to help build content strategy into The Nerdery's user experience practice. She helps a wide variety of clients—start-ups, nonprofits, colleges and universities, Fortune 50 companies, and everything in between—solve the messy content problems most organizations encounter every day. A regular trainer and speaker on content strategy topics, she once inspired participants to spontaneously do the wave in a workshop setting. Yep, that really happened. Meghan has been working with content and communications since 1996 after receiving her bachelor of arts degree in writing from Concordia College. She also holds a master of arts in nonprofit management from Hamline University.
