Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hi! My name is Megan. I'm from a small town called Wendell, North Carolina. As a first generation college student, I'm passionate about education. Outside of classes, I'm also involved in working with the SARA office and Stanford's First Generation Low Income Partnership, also known affectionately as FLIP. I am also an extreme Korean culture/language/history nerd. Also I'm addicted to green tea frapuccinos. Yep.
