Her work has been described as “Sharp as a knife and as funny as a fart” (The Stranger, Seattle). Her look has been described as “Anne Hathaway’s NORMAL looking sister, not a model by any means,” who has a “downtown theater look with regional theater hair,” and “a factory worker, not talkin’ Meryl Streep in Silkwood, but the friend next to her in line.”
Megan received her BFA in Acting and Original Works from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle and her MFA in Acting from American Repertory Theatre/Moscow Art Theatre Institute for Advanced Theatre Training at Harvard University (aka the Longest Name for an MFA Program).
