A little about me...

Hey everyone, my name is Megan. I was born and raised in Greenville, SC. I got married a little over 3 months ago to a wonderful man named Matthew (And yes, we had M&Ms at our reception). People are usually shocked when they find out I'm married because I look so young, but I am 21 (not 16) and about to graduate in December! Now that college is almost over, I feel like it has absolutely flown by. I have loved being here at Clemson.

I am a psychology major, sociology minor. I love my major because it is SO interesting! I admit, there were a few boring classes along the way, but overall it has been a great experience. When I came to Clemson I was a history major. I like history, but I knew I didn't want to teach. Teaching is not my gift. So, after much debate, I decided that what I really wanted to do was help people. I changed to psychology with the hope of going on to get my masters in counseling or social work.

I love to go hiking and backpacking in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. For our honeymoon we went to Jackson, Wyoming, and I got a taste of the spectacular Teton mountain range. I also enjoy fly fishing, although I am fairly new to it. I have been an avid runner in the past, but have not had a chance to keep it up this past year. I am hoping that I will be able to get back into it this semester. I'm not a marathon gal, but I thoroughly enjoyed participating in the Cooper River Bridge Run a year and a half ago (and hope to do so again this coming spring!). I like to read, but rarely have time to do so outside of class these days. However, my hubby and I just started reading the Harry Potter series together. We are on book 2 and loving it. One of my favorite Clemson activities is ultimate frisbee! I can't wait for the fall intramural season to begin; I just hope it cools off by then!

I am looking forward to working on this project for Habitat for Humanity. Last spring I did a little work on a Habitat house my church sponsored in the community, and I really enjoy the experience. It is exciting to me that our business writing class is being used in such a positive way!
