By ADCOLOR August 31, 2017 |As Global Head of Production for Facebook’s Creative Shop, Megan leads a team of producers and storytellers who push the creative and tech possibilities of Facebook’s platforms on a daily basis. Responsible for building and executing worldwide production operations and infrastructure, Megan supports a team of 200+ Creative Strategists that work with Facebook’s most innovate clients and agency partners around the globe.
As a self-taught photographer before the days of digital, she spent all her time in the darkroom and all her money on film. Shooting musicians for a buck and strangers on the street for pleasure, she honed her eye and skill around the pursuit of images. Within a few years of owning that first beloved film camera she began directing spots and moved deeper into producing for clients, agencies and production companies. After a few years managing purse strings and running sets, she dove squarely into television production – developing, writing and directing unscripted shows for the likes of History Channel, National Geographic & Discovery Channel. After 8 years of TV, she swapped the networks for agencies and began creating and producing digital content franchises.
At Facebook, she brings her love of connecting people, creating story experiences at scale and supporting pioneering creators together to build the production capability from scratch that now serves the full Creative Shop. Dedicated to using new technologies, unfamiliar mediums, and experimenting across genres, she is personally interested in multisensory expressions of art and media and draws them into her professional life whenever possible.
Megan also serves on The Civic Nation Creative Alliance Committee, an Obama initiative for future work and the Advisory Board for Frequency
