Meredith E. Guerrero, MS

Meredith Guerrero combines her marketing and leadership skills with a collaborative spirit and passion for doing meaningful work to create partnerships that will support COLS. After receiving her bachelor’s degree in Psychology and English from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Mrs. Guerrero took a position at Bain & Company’s global headquarters in Boston. At Bain she was part of a core team that created an investment fund subsidiary. After four years, she left Bain for graduate school at New York University where she received a master’s degree in Integrated Marketing, a program that focused on quantitative metrics, direct marketing fundamentals, social media, and ROI analysis by channel.

Mrs. Guerrero originally intended to work in the fashion industry and held internships at Prada and Ann Taylor. However, while in graduate school, Mrs. Guerrero lost both of her parents to preventable diseases. That life-changing experience convinced her to pursue a more meaningful, fulfilling path in work and life.

Consequently, after she received her master’s degree Mrs. Guerrero moved to Boulder, Colorado where she worked as a Marketing Strategy Consultant until she teamed up with Larry Gold, PhD, to form The GoldLab Foundation. In her capacity as Executive Director, she worked closely with Dr. Gold to create the initial plan for the Colorado Longitudinal Study.
