Megan was raised in Summit County with her four siblings. Her parents came to the area for a job opportunity and settled in the Snyderville Basin when the local workforce could afford to buy a home and raise a family in the area. Growing up along the Wasatch Back, she developed a strong passion for the environment. She graduated from PCHS in 1999, and ski patrolled at the Canyons while earning a bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry.
Megan went on to earn a master's degree in science teaching with the goal of giving back to her community. She taught high school earth science, biology, and AP environmental science for 11 years in the PCSD. In that time, she had the life-changing opportunity to buy an affordable home in the Park City Heights neighborhood and has been advocating for more local affordable housing options ever since.
Megan campaigned on a future-forward platform focused on sustainability, affordability, regional collaboration, and responsible growth. Her motivation to run came from her niece and nephews, former students, and the hardworking people of Summit County. She enjoys skiing and walking with her dog Obi-Wan, reading, hot springs, gardening, live music, and mountain biking.
