Meredith Murphy
Talent Attraction Manager
In my role at the West Des Moines Chamber, I create opportunities for students to become resilient, workforce-ready leaders and lead initiatives to bring new residents to our vibrant community. I am passionate about connection, I love helping people discover their place in West Des Moines and beyond. Outside of work, my wife and I enjoy trying new restaurants, biking to coffee shops, and catching shows at the Civic Center. Let’s chat about how we can connect and grow together!

Account Executive
Originally from South Dakota, I attended Northwestern College, where I met my husband. We now call Iowa home and are grateful for the vibrant community we've found here! We’re actively involved in our church and love to travel. I’m passionate about my role at the Chamber, where I get to support local businesses and contribute to our community’s growth.
