Get to know Megan:
Are you doing your dream job?
Yes and No. I knew I always wanted to go into business. Growing up I heard my dad talk a lot about business, marketing, and sales and watched as he helped build a company from the ground up through sale. I then observed as he created a sales and marketing niche for himself. I was always fascinated by the way marketing and advertising leveraged psychology and real data to persuade decision making. After talking with people I looked up to, I had a hunch marketing was where I wanted to be.
On the other hand I’d love to leverage my health coaching and nutrition education and training and one day help people reach their goals of living the healthy life they aspire to through nutrition and exercise.
