My name is Meredith Friedrichsen and I have recently graduated from the University of Mary in the spring of 2023 as a Social Studies and History Educator. Although I am originally from South Dakota, I have learned to love it in the great state of North Dakota! I have always loved the subject of history and sharing that love with other people; is exciting to me.
This excitement for history led me to pursue it as a career. I look forward to sharing this passion with my students and helping them connect the subject to their own lives.

I am the youngest of four children with two older brothers and an older sister. I was raised by my two wonderful parents who taught me that my education is one of great value, and is something that will stick with me for the rest of my life.
I graduated from Aberdeen Roncalli High School, a private Catholic high school, which led me to the University of Mary to continue my private Catholic education.
At the University of Mary, I have been able to encounter so many wonderful people who have taught me the values of community, hospitality and service. As I continue with my education and the education of others, I hope to bring these values into my future classroom.

I look forward to joining a team of educators who will help me meet my goal of showing students an appreciation for their learning as well as showing them the value and beauty of the subject of history.
