While in college and after, Megan lived and worked across the world. She conducted ecological surveys in Kenya, worked in photojournalism for the World Wildlife Fund Madagascar and in communications with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization in Washington, D.C.

She is currently training for her first century ride and fall climbing trips to the Shawagunk Mountains.
