Born in Korumburra, Victoria, Megan studied music from an early age, first with the flute, later taking the oboe at age 14. In 1998, with the help of the Australian National Academy of Music, she began lessons with oboist Eve Newsome. Megan completed a bachelor of music at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, after which she undertook 2 years of study in Zurich, Switzerland, in the class of Professor Thomas Indermuhle.

Megan has also been a principal player of the Australian Youth Orchestra and a recipient of the Willem Van Otterloo travelling scholarship, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra’s Young Artists Award and an Australian Youth Orchestra opportunity grant.
