Megan is Video Editor, but she likes writing anything that she can relate back to her history degree and pretend it's 'revision'. Outside of academics, she plays violin with the Hertford College Music Society, is secretary for the Oxford University Historical Re-enactment Society, and enjoys walking her dogs who are in fact the cutest in the world (unofficial award).
