Megan Teehan

           Megan Teehan, a student at Fiorello LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts, brings to journalism a deep interest in documenting social issues and working on how to solve the practical problems that people face. These are ambitious goals, though Megan considers herself to be self-contradicting in a way; she refers to herself as a “lazy ambitious”person. 

            Megan enjoys her school environment but she is not shy about disagreeing with her teachers and fellow students. In fact, she has always been open about discussing issues and opinions she feels strongly about. She is confident that she can help regular people in society, and she understands that at times this may require pushing some buttons. 

            Although her current interest is documenting and solving social problems, Megan has a variety of experiences in other fields. She is a vocal major at her high school (however, she does not see much potential in an upcoming singing career). Megan plans to continue her journey for finding a career path with openness to new ideas and opportunities.
