BIO
You may have seen Megan as part of Tiana's girl squad in Fox's hit TV show Empire. A lover of dance and all things beauty-related, Megan has developed a successful career in modeling and acting over the past 10 years.
Many years before celebrated photographer Dana Scruggs ever picked up a camera, she was searching for a model for her online boutique. In an act of desperation, she asked Megan – a project manager at the time – to step in front of the lens.
Dana’s moment of desperation became Megan’s opportunity. Months later, Megan was represented by her first agent. Megan's path took an unexpected turn when she moved to Cape Town, South Africa for six months to work as a model. She came back to the states and continued working full time as a model and actor.
She is best known for her long curly hair, curvy figure and ethnically ambiguous look. Some of her clients include Nike, Glamour Magazine, Hilton, Crate & Barrel, Trunk Club, Method, Pandora, Stussy and many more. Megan has been featured in publications and TV commercials nationally and worldwide. She is currently represented by model and talent agencies across the US.
