Meghann Hawes

Director of Strategy and Growth Marketing

Meghann Hawes directs strategy and growth marketing at Bay Leaf Digital, where she leads the team on B2B SaaS engagements and owns the quality standards behind every client deliverable. She designs full-funnel marketing programs that connect demand creation, pipeline, and retention into a single system, and builds the processes behind the agency’s work and the guardrails behind its AI. Meghann joined Bay Leaf Digital in 2021 after two decades across government agencies, large corporations, and small businesses. She holds an MA in International Relations from Boston University. A Connecticut native, she has made her home in Puerto Rico for 20+ years, where she spends her free time as a Certified Forest Bathing Guide, the kind of practice that sharpens attention to what most people miss.
