Her Interview
Ten minutes with Meghan
01What do you attribute your success to?
My daughter. She is a force to be reckoned with, and I want to be a role model for her, which pushes me past my comfort zone.
02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
Don't let age stop you from pursuing education or new careers. In 2, 5, or 10 years, you'll be that age anyway - do you want the degree and experience or not?
