“Megan is the exact type of person you want as a leader, manager, editor, and colleague. Her endless enthusiasm, reliability, and incredible problem-solving skills have gotten my team through every catastrophe imaginable. She’s a brainstorming genius who can write an email and deliver difficult feedback better than anyone I’ve ever met. As a manager, she’s an incredible champion, motivator, advisor, and advocate who pushes her reports to reach their full potential with ease. I don’t even want to think about what my career would look like without the privilege to learn and work under Megan for five years. I wouldn’t be where I am without her thoughtful edits, empathetic guidance, and incredible leadership. Megan encourages growth, gets results, and does it all with incredible empathy and kindness. She’s also got incredible editing skills and makes every single story she touches better. If I could create the perfect manager in a lab, they still would not hold a candle to Megan Willett-Wei. I could easily keep singing her praises to hit LinkedIn's 3,000 character maximum here, but I'll end it with this: There’s no one like her in the industry, and anyone would be incredibly lucky to work with her.”
