Born and raised in Memphis, Meggan returned in 2005 to raise her own family with her husband Daniel, also a native Memphian. Meggan’s family's roots go back several generations in Memphis. She is an alumna of St. Mary’s Episcopal School and a life-long member of Temple Israel and has served on both the St. Mary’s Alumnae Board and her congregation’s Board of Trustees. Meggan is also an active board member of MIFA, Playback Memphis, & Facing History and Ourselves, and has worked with organizations across the community. Meggan is committed to Memphis's future.

After graduating from Duke University and working in the national office of the education nonprofit Facing History and Ourselves, Meggan participated in the inaugural cohort of the Boston Teacher Residency and received her Masters of Education at University of Massachusetts. She has taught elementary school and has served as a post-secondary guidance counselor for high school students at both REACH Memphis and The Soulsville Charter School and maintains relationships with many of her former students years later. Meggan understands the potential our youth can bring to Memphis when they have opportunities to see a bright future.

Meggan and her husband Daniel have two wonderful teenagers, Sadie and Ben, who are the grounding force in everything Meggan does. Meggan served on the PTO of East High School, spends any free time she has ferrying kids to soccer practice or theater auditions, and has the same hopes and concerns about her children’s future as every other parent. She wants to ensure Memphis is stronger, safer, and better tomorrow than it is today, so that younger generations will always want to make it their home, the way Meggan and Daniel have made it theirs.
