Meghan O'Leary

Meghan sees her work as creating an environment where each student feels a sense of belonging, and in turn, feels safe and supported in trying new things, taking risks, tackling failure, and expanding their notion of the world and themselves. She feels passionately about EXPLO being a place where students simultaneously feel at home and pushed into new comfort zones, learning about themselves and those around them to create a meaningful community. Meghan started with EXPLO in 2016, has lived on campus for six summers, and has served as Director of Teaching and Learning and Dean of Students at EXPLO’s Senior Program, as well as Dean at the Junior Program. She was the founding chair of EXPLO’s IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Action) Committee.
