Brenda Meeker

Owner • President

Brenda Meeker is passionate about supporting others in their personal and professional growth. As owner and president of Elevate Consulting, LLC, she provides learning and development, HR, and project-based solutions to meet organizational and employee development needs.

Brenda has experience in training and meeting facilitation, human resources, managing projects and events, and developing communication plans and messages. She has worked in corporate and nonprofit settings and Division I athletics, providing a range of experience that informs her work.

Brenda is active in the Cedar Rapids community and with organizations across Iowa. She is a member of talent development, coaching, and HR associations and serves as a volunteer and leader with community organizations.

Brenda earned a bachelor’s degree from Northwestern College in St. Paul, Minnesota, and an MBA from Drake University in Des Moines. She cheers for those college teams, as well as the Iowa State Cyclones. She is a great example that growth is possible for anyone, as she no longer cheers against – and can even be caught cheering for – the Iowa Hawkeyes after becoming a house divided.
