Before coming to the University of Dayton, Ms. Megson owned a horse farm with her husband. They bred, boarded, trained, and raced horses for twenty years. Since the business had its ups and downs, she was attracted to the stability of the university, as well as its academic environment. Ms. Megson also has an artistic flair and enjoys designing floral arrangements and oil painting. Two of her pieces of artwork are hanging in her office, and she has presented several on Ebay. She also enjoys biking and antiquing while not at work.
