They are passionate about community organizing and education, believing it should be as well-researched and thoughtful as the classes taught in the WGSS department to empower communities without the same access to information. Megs has their background in the nonprofit sector, they have a B.A. in Nonprofit Management with a minor in Diversity and Social Inequality and have volunteered, interned, and worked for many local and international organizations.
