Hello! My name is Megan and I’m a palaeontologist. I will be teaching geology and palaeontology lessons. I have my BSc and MRes in Palaeontology and currently undertaking a PhD at the University of Portsmouth. I have published many scientific papers on a range of subjects, appeared on TV promoting Isle of Wight geology/ palaeontology and have my first fossil book coming out in 2025!

My research area is broad, as I simply find it all interesting! But I have specialised in marine reptiles and pterosaurs, but my focus has shifted towards geology, as the rocks can tell us so much!

I also run Wight Coast Fossils, a fossil and geology tour company here on the Isle of Wight with two friends. We take people of all ages and all walks of life along our coastlines and open their eyes to our amazing prehistoric past!

I love to share my subject with all those that will listen, so I can’t wait to share this amazing science with everyone here too!
