Education
Megan completed her undergraduate studies at the University of California, Irvine, earning her Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing in 2009. As a registered nurse, she specialized in perinatal nursing, focusing on childbirth education, labor and birth, postpartum care, newborn care, and high-risk obstetrics. In 2015, she expanded her expertise into fertility medicine, serving as a fertility nurse coordinator, onco-fertility liaison, and third-party coordinator for six years.
In 2020, Megan earned her Master’s degree in Nurse Midwifery from Frontier Nursing University. She has since incorporated her midwifery training into her fertility practice, viewing her role as a fertility midwife as a way to help patients navigate their reproductive journeys and guide them through the often tumultuous paths they face. She believes this discipline embodies the intersection of medicine and mystery, where, against all odds, life can prevail, and families can emerge from grief and sorrow.
