About Meghan
My parents sealed my medical school fate when my dad brought home a Children's Anatomy Atlas (from Costco, of all places). Throughout college, I worked as an instructor in the anatomy labs, teaching multiple sections of 20 students each semester. My university's program was notoriously difficult, but I found joy and satisfaction in helping students conquer the semester--especially since the class seemed impossible to me at first. After graduating, I became an MCAT tutor and pre-med coach to continue working with amazing students. I absolutely love helping go-getters reach their potential as future physicians.
Why do I coach?
It took me 7 years to decide I could pursue medicine. I wondered if I could both be a physician and raise a family. I was anxious about taking the MCAT. I felt intense imposter syndrome. Though I had a few amazing mentors and professors, I also ran into resistance from my community. I desperately needed someone who knew me and believed in me even when I didn't believe in myself. I started coaching to be that person for YOU.
