Hello, my name is Megan.
Two decades ago, I began my career as a pilot and flight instructor at Purdue University Airport. From there, I joined United Parcel Service working as an Industrial Engineer, before transitioning to tech - pivoting from Industrial Engineer to Software Engineer.

I worked for several years at Bakken & Bæck building complex and interesting products and, last year, moved from agency to startup. Currently, I'm helping Pitch imagine new ways of communicating visually and leading a multi-disciplinary team to build features for the core product.
I love building things that solve people's problems. At Pitch, a company that builds presentation software, I work on our core product. My goal, here, is to imagine the best way to communicate visually, and to enable everyone to tell their story and craft their perfect narrative.

In 2023, I've been particularly focused on bringing motion and animations to Pitch. I created the strategy and shaped the animation suite from the ground up and, in doing so, have opened new possibilities for what a presentation deck can be.

At Bakken & Bæck, I dreamed up På(fyll) - a circular service aiming to reduce single use plastic from everyday home and personal care. As the Lead Engineer and Product Owner, I was involved in turning it from idea to viable business.

Before that, I created the first version of Samsolgt, a digital service that simplifies and reforms the traditional real estate model. As one of two Frontend Engineers, I built the first version of both the user-facing and admin platforms using React, Gatsby, and Yarn workspaces, on a Python backend.

With IKEA/SPACE10, I worked on a series of digital experiments to imagine new ways of living. Building an app and API to connect and control IKEA's Trådfri smart blinds, I experimented with mindful manipulation of window blinds. In doing so, I created a functional solution to embrace the light and welcome the dark, according to the weather and time of day.

In my spare time, I love to garden. Recently, I've started volunteering in the local forest, contributing to an Agroforestry project by planting trees, herbs and vegetables. When I'm not outside, I'm likely to be watching (bad) TV with my dog, Oscar.
