Megan Linscott is a Level 2 Judge from Lewiston, Maine. Her recognitions came from Joe Hughto, Christopher Wendelboe, and AJ Kerrigan, who had the following to say:

The very first I worked with you, I knew that you were going to go far in the judge program. You have a confident and fun demeanor which is only ever helpful for events. I’ve always been happy to see you on staff for events. Then, you joined the Mystical Tutor project and demonstrated that your work is truly something amazing. You very quickly went from being a new member to being one of the most valuable people we have on the entire project. You truly just ‘get it’ as far as the judge program is concerned and I’m really excited to see what you do next. – Joe Hughto

During the Super Sunday Series at GP Providence you continued to impress me with how awesome you are. You showed great initiative in volunteering for tasks as well as always looking for things to do to help the event run as smoothly as possible. You made my task of team leading very easy as any time I got caught up in something you were right there to make sure our team’s tasks were accomplished. Keep up the great work! – Christopher Wendelboe

An important quality for judges is to always make sure we are learning new things, and you take that to a higher degree. You always ask awesome questions and are open to interesting discussions. In addition, you are very good at encouraging those around you. Your general attitude towards judging keeps those around you excited, and in my personal discussions, you have been very helpful in both developing my own self-worth as a judge, as well as my ability to perform honest self-evaluations. Keep up the awesome work, and never stop getting better! – AJ Kerrigan

Here’s what Chris Cahill had to say about this recommendation:

Today I have the honor of presenting Megan Linscott! Megan is an incredible asset to our family here in the Northeast, both on the floor of events and off. She brings a wonderful exuberance to our role as judges, which has inspired more than one exemplar recommendation. Her thirst for knowledge is an inspiration we all can follow. Beyond that, she has become a stalwart member of the Mystical Tutor project, rapidly becoming one of its most valuable members shortly after joining. Thank you for all of your efforts, Megan! We look forward to seeing more!
