Hello,
I’m Erin Meyer and I am deeply passionate about creating positive change in the world. Since 2017, I have dedicated myself to decreasing food insecurity, reducing food waste, and mitigating climate change by championing the redistribution of surplus food. I am now offering consulting services to further this work. I work with cities, counties, food pantries and food donors in advancing their edible food recovery goals.
In my previous roles, I have led transformative programs, including the Bobcat Eats Food Waste Awareness Program and the Pop-Up People’s Pantry. Since 2018, these programs have helped rescue over 3,167,000 pounds of food waste, I facilitated a record-breaking 47,000-pound produce donation and I co-launched community fridges, serving disadvantaged communities. I also played a key role in implementing county-wide legislation and managed grants upwards of $250,000.
I am a small business owner and board-certified health and wellness coach. I opened Deep Health Coaching LLC in 2023. Through science-backed research, tools, and mindfulness, I support activists, helpers, and professionals reach their health and career goals while avoiding burnout, thriving and becoming more effective.
My commitment to sustainability and nutrition extends to my volunteer work and involvement in organizations such as the Colorado Blueprint to End Hunger, the Jefferson County Food Policy Council and the HungreeApp.
My educational background includes a Master of Science in Sustainable and Resilient Food Systems from the University of Wisconsin- Stevens Point, a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Food Science from Colorado State University, and a Bachelor of Science in Integrative Biology from the University of Colorado, Denver.
Aside from work and volunteering, I am an avid runner, book lover and flower photographer. I have an amazing dog named Sukha who is probably the best dog in the world.
