Megan Leonard began volunteering as a writing assistant in high school, and she has been a believer in the Writing Center model of peer conferring ever since. She earned her MFA in creative writing from UNH in 2013, and her most recent poetry publication includes her chapbook, Where The Body Ends, from Platypus Press. She also has a certificate in ESOL instruction and adult education, and she taught non-native English speakers in writing and other subjects for over ten years. Megan also works as an editor and writing coach for post-graduate writers and researchers, and she loves the great variety of writing and topics she encounters with the OWL and with her freelance work. She looks forward to reading YOUR work and helping you meet your writing goals.

In her free time, she enjoys reading, traveling, practicing yoga, and spending time with family and friends.
