Megan Maycher - Miss Universe Canada 2010 Candidate
37
Name: Megan Maycher
Age: 21
Height: 5'6"
Hometown: Coquitlam, BC
Megan is a soft spoken, dynamic and ambitious young lady. She is a 3rd year student at Simon Fraser University majoring in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry. Currently carrying out her pre requisites for Dentistry, she recently completed her DAT (Dental Admissions Test) and is in the process of applying to Canadian Dental schools. She hopes to one day specialize in orthodontics and own her own practice.
Megan grew up in Winnipeg Manitoba, following her family to British Columbia in 2005 as they made the permanent move to Canada’s west coast. Leaving friends and family behind was at the time a difficult change, but she has adjusted well and is grateful to live in such a beautiful city.
She spends her summers at Lake of the Woods, enjoying boating, swimming and water sports. As well as spending much of her time on her grandparent’s farm, dirt biking in the summers, snowmobiling in the winter and enjoying the outdoors. It was the farm where Megan discovered from a young age her love for animals, naming everything from bunnies, to chickens, frogs and bugs and claiming them to be her pets.
Megan is an advocate in the importance of education, spending part of her time tutoring grade 12 math and calculus, and the greater part of her time devoted to her own studies.
She loves to stay active and has always been involved in many athletics, spending the majority of her sports career devoted to hockey, soccer and gymnastics, but has also participated in rowing, rugby, field hockey and volleyball. She continues to run and snowboard and spends any free time exercising; she is currently training for the Vancouver 2010 half marathon, her second half marathon, completing her first in 2008.
Megan is excited for the opportunity to represent young Canadian women and hopes to spread the message of the importance of working hard and approaching goals with enthusiasm and decency.
