Dunwoody alumni are innovators, entrepreneurs, top technicians and skilled workers. Here is a quick Q&A with just one!
Tiffiny Meinert, ’88 Baking
Owner, Tiffiny’s Tipton Bakery
Q. Where is the weirdest place you have ever met a fellow alum?
A. I live in very rural Iowa so I have not met a fellow Dunwoody alum yet. I have, however, through social media contacted my roommate from when we were both attending Dunwoody. She is in California now.
Q. Has there been a moment in your career when you thought “My job is awesome!” and what was that moment?
A. My job is awesome…. Well to be honest I have not had a “job” since I purchased the bakery 4 years ago. See I don’t have to go to work, I get to do what I love. Yes, there are trying times and I put in a lot of long hours but it has never felt like a “job.”
Q. What would your former classmates be surprised to know about you now?
A. My former classmates would most likely be surprised that I became a grandmother this year to twins.
Q. What is your favorite memory of Dunwoody?
A. My favorite memories of Dunwoody are when we would all work around the big wooden table rolling dough with Mr. Galloway, and
Mr. Letty showing me how I can make my flower cake designs have more dimension.
