As a creative, Megan is intensely interested in what moves and engages people.

She has always felt most alive at the intersection of creativity and social movements. This has translated into creative direction, branding and marketing, social change campaigns, and arts administration/entrepreneurship.

Megan enjoys working with others who are driven by excellence and innovation. She finds inspiration in social justice movements, the arts, and the beauty of the natural world.

Megan relocated to Costa Rica in August 2026, from where she continues to serve U.S. orgs and institutions in bringing about positive change.
