About me

Alright, bab

My name is Megan Egan - some people think that rhymes - and if you're one of those people you're pronouncing it wrong. Oh so wrong. But I do like how it rolls off the tongue.

Right, now for the business bit.

I'm one of those people who runs head-first into things with reckless abandon. I like to dream big and figure out the rest along the way. A real 'sleeves rolled up, nothing is impossible' kind of mentality - and it's worked pretty well for me so far.

The year I was due to go to uni was the year the Tories put the fees up, and getting 50k+ in debt for a 3-year piss up felt dumb, even to younger me, so I went the apprenticeship route instead. I prefer getting my hands dirty anyway. After a few years graft working as a graphic designer I found myself winning a spot on the D&AD Academy, where my mind was opened to all the wondrous creative career possibilities for the first time. As I stood there with wide-eyed wonder looking at all the potential career paths that were laid out before me, I chose advertising. Go figure.

With a massive sprinkling of luck I was catapulted into the impenetrable London bubble and began working as an art director, where I've been ever since. I've even lost my Brummie accent.

Currently, I'm thinking of ideas and driving people mad trying to make them happen at Creature London, as an associate creative director.

When I'm not selling things for brands I'm selling my own t-shirts, drawing pretty pictures or bragging about my cold water swimming. Hey, did I mention I swim in like, really cold water
