Let's find that fire in the belly feeling.

Hi, I’m Megan! I'm a designer and art director residing in Rochester, NY with the goal of making things that get people (including myself) excited about the world. I think human connection is key to a meaningful life, and design has the power to impact that through creating brands and culture that people can authentically connect to. It creates a sense of belonging we all need, and I believe the people you work with can create that too.

Having worked in large ad agencies, boutique branding shops, and in-house for global brands, I've developed the ability to be hyper-focused on one project, as well as wear many hats at once. I thrive at high-level concepting and enjoy dredging into the details once the bigger picture is envisioned and strategically sorted. It's the head-in-the-clouds-feet-on-the-ground strategy – start lofty and think big, then figure out what is possible and fitting for the client and project.
 

my life outside of adobe:

• I love running. I have a few half marathons and Ragnars under my belt, but setting my eyes on an ultra (yikes!)
• I'm a word nerd so when not on a computer, my nose is usually in a book. I adore TED talks and McSweeney articles.
• "MGN" comes from a crush that made me a mixed CD when I was 16. He wasn't sure how to spell my name exactly except for the main consonants. It's distinct, so it stuck.
• I am a quantum entanglement enthusiast - would love to discuss.
