Megan was born and raised in Rock Hill, and is a proud graduate of Northwestern High School. Her parents are both retired educators from Rock Hill Schools, and she is grateful for the full-circle opportunity to be back in her hometown, raising her own children in her favorite school district. Megan graduated from Florida State University and taught middle and high school in Jacksonville, FL. She then ventured into the world of nonprofits, which is how she met her husband, Ed, who is also a nonprofit executive. Megan and Ed are playfully competitive about serving their respective organizations, and they enjoy sharing ideas to gain inspiration. When they are not talking shop, they stay busy with their 4 children – a middle schooler at Sullivan, 2 elementary students at Cherry Park, and 1 preschooler who is eagerly awaiting his turn to join his siblings in “big school.” Megan has recently earned her Certificate in Education Foundation Leadership from the National Association of Education Foundations.
