Meade joins the college coaching ranks for the first time following 16 years of experience at the club level. She made her mark in the gymnastics work at North Stars Gymnastics Academy, which was home to Meade for 15 years. There she helped transform the academy into one of the top clubs in the country.
Meade coached a variety of regional and national level gymnasts, in particular Alicia Boren, a Junior Olympic National Champion, and Rachel Lukas, a two time National Champion. She coached athletes in the Visa USA Championships in 2013 as well as the CoverGirl Classic for three years.
Prior to her coaching years, Meade attended the University of New Hampshire from 1995-99 on a full athletic scholarship for gymnastics. She graduated in 1999 with a degree in early childhood studies.
Meade spent her early years as an elite gymnast, training with the USA Gymnastics Team from 1991-93. She was a Junior National Champion in 1991 and also competed in the Pan-American Games in Havana, Cuba the same year.
