Morgan grew up in the small town of Linden, Michigan. Upon high school graduation, she decided to continue her education at SVSU studying Exercise Science. During her undergraduate studies, she found herself drawn to her university’s Campus Recreation department. Morgan began working as a Health and Wellness Coordinator at SVSU Campus Recreation and quickly learned that recreation was what she wanted to do long-term. She was promoted to a Senior Recreation Coordinator, overseeing the program areas of Fitness, Well-being, Intramural sports, Club Sports, and Outdoor Recreation at SVSU. Upon graduation, Morgan decided she wanted to further her education and obtain her Masters degree in Sport Management. She attended Western Michigan University for her Masters program while working as a Graduate Assistant for Facilities and Student Development with WMU University Recreation. Morgan is excited to be back on the east side of the state working at Eastern Michigan University as the Coordinator for Fitness Programs. She is passionate about student well-being and aims to create a culture belonging and inclusivity within fitness programs.
Morgan's interests include working out, hiking, traveling, attending sporting events and playing recreational sports! A fun fact about Morgan is that she spent time working with the Saginaw Spirit Hockey Team in Game Day Operations and with the Traverse City Pit Spitters as a part of their Promotions Crew.
