Hello ACEIT Community! My name is Meghan and I’d like to introduce myself as one of the newer members of the ACEIT team. I started working with Tecolote 11 months ago after I traded the beach for the hills and moved from Charleston, SC to the greater Washington, D.C. area. In Charleston, I worked for a 501c3 nonprofit as an educator and volunteer coordinator, and spent my time teaching people of all ages and backgrounds. While I loved my job, after four years I decided that I was ready for a change of scenery as well as the challenge of pivoting into a career that would allow me to pursue my interest in data analysis and the stories that data can tell us.

I was lucky enough to land at Tecolote and began to learn the art and science of cost estimation, as well as how to harness the full power present in the ACEIT suite of tools. In these pursuits, I was taken under the wing of the exceptional Gina Fennell, who (as I am sure many of you know) retired this past May. In the months leading up to her retirement, Gina helped me learn the ropes of writing Help Text and answering ACEIT Support calls. Even before she left, I began answering calls and emails from customers like yourself and writing some of the Help Text that will be deployed with ACEIT 8.0. These roles have given me the distinct pleasure of continuing to use my background in
teaching and customer service while also learning an incredible amount about all the technical, intriguing, and challenging topics that surround and support the cost estimation process.
It’s always a good day when I’m able to demonstrate a piece of functionality in ACE to a customer who didn’t know about that capability before, or assist an IT department working through a tough software installation—so please don’t hesitate to reach out! You can find me via email at [email protected] or phone at (805)-964-6963.
