Get to know me

Hi, I’m Megan. I’m a professional MMA fighter, jiu-jitsu competitor, and a first-time mom navigating one of the most beautiful and challenging journeys of my life.
I’ve loved martial arts since I was a little girl, competing in Tae Kwon Do before falling in love with MMA during college. Since stepping into the cage in 2015, I’ve had the privilege of fighting all over the country, capturing the 135lb Tuff-N-Uff Amateur Title in Las Vegas, and competing for Invicta FC, the #1 all-women’s MMA promotion in the world. Alongside my MMA career, I’ve also competed nationally in jiu jitsu, constantly sharpening my skills both on the mat and in the cage.
Now, I’m embarking on my most exciting chapter yet: motherhood. Becoming a mom has changed everything, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. But the fire in me to compete never went out. This blog is my space to document my comeback journey, share the honest and real moments of balancing life as a professional athlete and a new mom, and hopefully inspire other moms out there who are chasing their own dreams.
Whether you’re here for the behind the scenes of training, my favorite mom and athlete must-haves, or just to follow along on the ride ; I’m so glad you’re here.
