Meg Staloff (she/her) is a Southern Vermonter to the core (although she currently resides in Greenfield, MA). Raised in Wilmington and a BUHS graduate, she left the area to attend Bard College. After graduation, she experimented with urban living in London, Boston and New York, and traveled the world working in the fine wine business.

She returned home to Southern Vermont in 2009 so her 2 daughters could be ‘born here’ Vermonters. She comes to BDCC from a 5 year stint running Wilmington’s Downtown organization (Wilmington Works), where she worked with volunteers and the town to accomplish major streetscape improvements, steer a large public art project to completion, and also manage a yearly schedule of local events and fundraising campaigns. Meg has chaired the Wilmington Planning Commission and worked extensively on zoning reform around housing development.

Her lived and professional experience is now brought to bear through the Southern Vermont Economy Project, helping volunteers and elected officials complete the projects that are at the heart of rural economic development.
