A little bit about Megan
Megan spends her free time with friends, family and her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Moose. If she’s not at the dog park, she’s probably reading or trying out a new restaurant. If she could visit anywhere, she’d travel to Sweden to explore its innovative sustainable infrastructure. And when it comes to guilty pleasures? Panera kitchen sink cookies are at the top of the list.
