ABOUT

ssDSC03860.jpg

Hi, I'm Megan! I recently graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma with a B.A. in Strategic Communications and minors in Journalism and Fashion Marketing. Through my degree, I studied how marketing, social media, advertising and public relations have combined to create the current digital communications landscape and how to best utilize each area to create strategic multimedia campaigns.

 

My hope is to do digital and event marketing in the music, fashion and/or travel industries to bring consumers unique, memorable experiences that stand out in a busy world. Experiences in these industries have shaped who I am as a person and consumer, which led me to want to help other consumers and fans have memorable experiences of their own, whether through discovering their new favorite album or clothing line or seeing their dream artist or destination for the first time.

​

Outside of work, you can find me doing photography, traveling, going to concerts, baking and reading. I love a good cup of tea, all things sparkly, breathtaking landscapes and cityscapes and anything Tiffany blue. Some of my favorite memories include going to the Vatican for my birthday, meeting some of my favorite bands, getting fresh lobster in Maine and hand-feeding flamingosLately, I have been exploring different parts of Oklahoma to better understand my home and see the incredible range of landscapes and historic areas in every corner of the state.
