Megan was born in Charlotte, North Carolina, on August 26, 1998. She was a beautiful, highly intelligent, witty, adventurous, and interesting woman. She was an extremely talented artistic young lady with great vision to see beauty in everything around her. Megan recently received a degree in graphic design from the University of Cape Town, a moment of great pride for her family.

An avid nature lover, Megan found joy in activities such as kayaking, fishing, and CrossFit. Her enthusiasm for the outdoors was evident in her love for hiking and running, which led her to establish her own running club.
