Meet Megan

Who am I?

It seems like a sudden but gradual thing - learning about oneself. It is almost as if it all clicks into place like the pieces in a puzzle. It wasn’t until my late thirties that I felt much more at home with myself. I realized I don’t need to be great at everything, but I do want to be great at design.

So, hi, I’m Megan; I’m into designing things like page spreads, newsletters, course materials, websites, and brochures.

I also like drawing dark-but-lovely illustrations that might bring happiness but in a weird Victorian-aunt’s-velvet-curtains kind of way. Typography, however, whether it be hand-lettered or using fonts, is probably my favorite element of design and illustration.

Designing is like my taste in music.

Give me some Taylor Swift, then switch it up with Rammstein, and throw Run The Jewels in there for good measure. Oh, and can’t forget blink-182; that would be a travesty. Anyway, I like it all; art, that is.

If you can’t tell, I’m not a super serious person; I like a good chuckle. But I’m serious about design. I am also serious about mentoring and teaching. In most of my positions, I’ve been a leader of people. Whether that be leading by example or actually delegating work. I very much enjoy leading people and hope to continue being a design role model for others.

My ultimate career goals are to cultivate a team with similar passions and help others learn their craft in design. All while living life with a bit of a smirk.

As for me personally: I’m an elder Millennial California girl, but I live so very far away in Florida. I enjoy wearing pointy jewelry, reading fantasy, and eating enchiladas. My husband is in aerospace, and we just had a kid in March of 2023. He’s a cute dude. My husband, I mean, but the baby is alright, too.
