Liz Mergenthaler

Board Treasurer

Liz grew up in the suburbs of St. Louis, but it took until after leaving the area and returning post-college to truly get to know the city more and feel proud to call St. Louis home. She graduated from Missouri State University with a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics, and soon found her passion for non-profit work, especially in the health and wellness space. This path led her to volunteer and eventually work with Girls on the Run St. Louis, an organization dedicated to empowering young girls to lead healthy, confident lives. Liz has spent the majority of her professional career in the non-profit sector, focusing on everything from program management to organizational operations. Outside of work, she is typically found running or walking in our beautiful city parks, taking a hike with her pup, or checking off another local business from her endless list of St. Louis places to try.  After years of following Humans of St. Louis, she is thrilled to contribute to the organization’s work in a more meaningful way.
