Having grown up at the Wildheart Trust on the Isle of Wight, Megan spent her teenage years rehabilitating animals from the circus and pet trade, as well as leading public talks on ecology. She holds a BSc (Hons) in Zoology from the University of Liverpool and has built a strong foundation in field-based conservation, working internationally on projects including shark ecology in the Bahamas, cheetah conservation in Namibia and the rehabilitation of Asiatic black bears in China.

Her first broadcasting films were based on investigative journalism, including Undercover Tourist (BBC) and Earthrise for Al Jazeera English, where she reported on global conservation challenges such as plastic pollution, the rise of environmental activism and wildlife exploitation. She has since become a regular presenter across the BBC’s Watch strand (Springwatch, Winterwatch, and formally Autumnwatch), contributing both studio and field-led storytelling, as well as appearing on additional factual formats including Animal Park and presenter-led specials. In Daytime, Megan has featured as an environmental expert for This Morning and Morning Live.

Alongside linear broadcasting, Megan has demonstrated a strong track record in digital-first content and audience engagement. Her growing social media presence focuses on bringing young people and women into nature, whilst educating on new science and raising awareness for wildlife. She is also an established author, having written An Atlas of Endangered Species and co-written Back to Nature: How to Love Life – and Save It.

Megan is an active ambassador and patron for a number of conservation and science engagement organisations, supporting initiatives that promote biodiversity, sustainability and STEM education in the UK and internationally including RSPB, The Wildlife Trust, Helping Rhinos, Winchester Science Centre and Made by Dyslexia.
