Professional Profile
My name is Meghan Watson, and I am currently a junior at Longwood University. I plan to graduate in May of 2021 with a Bachelors in English. I am very involved on campus. During my sophomore year I was the new member educator for my sorority, Alpha Beta Psi, along with various other positions. I am also a member of the Women’s Club Lacrosse team, as well as a member of Epsilon Eta, the honors academics environmental science fraternity. Being involved in so many different activities, along with keeping up with my school work and my part time job as a Coast Guard Reservist, I have learned excellent time management skills, as well as how to give back to something bigger than myself.
