Meridith C. Grundei (she/her) is a New York-based actor, improviser, director, educator, and theater maker with a passion for devised work, non-linear storytelling and out-of-the-box thinking across stage and screen, though she can be found playing an overly concerned parent in a commercial or two. 

Her credits span across television, film, theatre, and voiceover work, with award-winning directors and producers around the country-she’s won some nice awards herself. She could elaborate on it all here, or you could just peek her resume below.

With an M.F.A. in Contemporary Performance from Naropa University, she is an Associate Artist with Local Theater Company (Boulder, CO) and travels the country teaching and performing improv as a guest and adjunct teacher.
