Q&A With DarLynn Meaders

(interview me)
DarLynn Meaders
Gymnastics Coach, Chicago Park District
Location: Chicago, IL United States
Joined: Jul 20th, 2025
About   (request update)
I have worked many years in the field of tumbling and gymnastics, while also being a gymnast myself. As a gymnast, I was a national qualifier three times and gained many skills like professional communication, patience, and high work ethic. When I begin my college journey, I plan to participate in internships that surround my major of architecture.
Life & Professional Aspirations:
From a young age, I've been inspired by how architecture can shape a community's connection and even lives. The contrast between the build environment of neighborhoods can show deep inequalities between groups of people and I plan to use my knowledge in architecture to change that. I plan to create beautiful, yet inclusive, functional spaces that uplift underserved areas. I aspire to lead construction projects that create a lasting impact and authentically reflect and support the communities they serve.
