After graduating from the University of Liverpool in 2019, Meg worked as a mixed equine and companion animal vet on the Devon/Cornwall border before relocating to Australia to work at a busy racetrack practice in Queensland, where she developed her interests in dentistry and diagnostic imaging.
Following a break to do some travelling, including some volunteering with horses and donkeys in the Gambia, Meg has returned to the South West.
Meg grew up on the coast of West Wales doing all things Pony Club as well as riding on the beach. She still likes to ride when she gets time, alongside surfing and trail running.
