  • Meredith Resnick, Associate
    Meredith is an award-winning broadcast news professional, with more than a decade of experience in the Washington press corps. A veteran of one of the top news operations in the Nation's capitol, she has keen insight into what clients must know to be successful newsmakers.

    As an investigative television producer at Washington's CBS affiliate, WUSA, Meredith has conducted literally hundreds of interviews involving top government officials, leaders in the private sector, and nationally known celebrities. She has extensive experience in covering stories as diverse as city politics, controversies surrounding national policies, high-profile court cases, Supreme Court rulings, crime, and "breaking" news such as plane crashes and violent weather.

    Meredith's in-depth reporting is also highly regarded in Washington's extremely competitive news market. For example, her multi-part series on preventive medicine received recognition for excellence by the American Heart Association. And her production experience is international in scope. Meredith's travels to Haiti, for instance, resulted in an acclaimed series of in-depth feature reports on that country's policies and people.

    After developing a solid reputation for excellence at WUSA, Meredith's writing skills and ability to shape a story attracted the attention of NBC's owned and operated station in Washington, WRC-TV. There she wrote scripts for news broadcasts, and prepared anchors for live interviews. She also continued to produce reports, earning kudos for both feature stories and her coverage of breaking news.

    After ten years in news, Meredith decided to share her skills and knowledge of the media with clients such as The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, The National SAFEKIDS Campaign, The National Highway Traffic Safety Commission and Education Week Magazine. Subsequently, her work producing video news releases for clients has been nationally recognized, including receipt of a Questar Award.

    Meredith's clients appreciate her straightforward approach in helping them to analyze their issues and develop clear, concise and newsworthy messages. She is adept at working with even the most camera-shy client to become comfortable in front of the camera and avoid the common pitfalls likely to occur in media interviews.

    Meredith keeps her news skills and contacts current by remaining an active member of Washington media where she continues to be in great demand as a story producer. Most recently, her work has aired nationally on PBS.

    Meredith lives in Maryland with her husband and three young daughters.
