Thanks for watching!
Megan fell in love with magic aged five when she was given her first magic set and has been performing magic ever since.
She loves entertaining people, watching their faces light up in awe and wonder and hearing gasps of astonishment as she performs her spellbinding routines.
She learned much of her craft at the Young Magician's Club, a youth initiative of The Magic Circle. Being taught by some of the world's best magicians from such an early age gave Megan a really strong foundation in both technical and presentation skills, and she has since continued her training with professional magicians from around the world.
Megan has been a very proud member of The Magic Circle since the age of 18. She has since been promoted to Member of The inner Magic Circle with Gold Star, the highest degree a member of the society can achieve.
In 2014, she became the first woman and youngest ever person to be elected as an officer of the society, one of the top five roles running the prestigious organisation. After serving five years as Honorary Secretary, Megan was honoured to be elected as Vice-President in 2019, making history once again.
Megan has won several awards for her performances. In September 2018, she won the International Brotherhood of Magicians’ British Ring Stage competition, and was also awarded the Conventioneers Trophy for originality, recognising the creativity she shows in her magic.
Megan is especially proud of the magic society she co-founded and ran at university. As President, her passion and dedication to magic led the society to being acknowledged as one of the best on campus, and several students went on to become Members of The Magic Circle themselves.
