Minister 

As our half-time contract minister, Rev. Megan is chiefly involved in our

congregation’s worship life, staff leadership, and collaboration with our Board

and leaders to serve our community of faith joyfully from the heart of Studio City.

She looks forward to connecting with you in-person or by e-mail.

Rev. Megan is our minister at UUCSC and has served in Unitarian Universalist religious

leadership for almost 20 years. In 2009, she received a Master of Arts in Ethics and

Social Theory from the Graduate Theological Union (GTU, Berkeley, California) and

then, taught and advised seminarians at Starr King School for the Ministry for 10 years.

After two years of doctoral study in ethics and Women’s Studies in Religion, she joined

the PhD program in sociology at the University of California San Francisco to become a

researcher focused on spiritual care, health equity and chronic illness. Along the way of

teaching and studying, she found her call to ordained ministry; she completed a parish

internship in small/large church ministry at First UU Church of San Diego and

chaplaincy training at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. She obtained

fellowship as a UU minister in 2018 and was ordained in Beverly, Massachusetts in

2019. When she is not at UUCSC, Rev. Megan is supporting and leading research

teams focused on psychosocial well-being, spiritual coping and pediatric diabetes at

Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. She lives in Eagle Rock with her wife Stefanie and

their two cats, Maui and Salem.
