Meagen is Camenae's Technical Director and Set and Lighting Designer. She has technically directed, designed set, lights, and/or props for Ophelia, The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus and Triple Goddess presented by Camenae Ensemble Theatre Company; Cliffhangers by Babes with Blades; Alice by the Neo- Futurists; Henry 4 with Stockyards Theatre Project; How I Learned to Drive by 20% Theatre Company; The Quarter Past Midnight, Staring Contest or the Enemy in Orange and A Greater Gravity by Fury Productions; Babel's in Arms and Degas C'est Moi by Smoke and Mirror Productions; Thieves' Carnival, Jugger's Rain and The Chalk Circle with Payton Players.

Meagen has had an enduring connection with theatre ever since the fifth grade, when she performed a role in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. She knew then that being on stage was not her true passion, but understanding absolutely everything that was going on behind it, was.

She finds herself energized daily by her desire to invent new environments and rediscover the excitement and fulfillment that a production offers. Meagen has taken on many behind-the-scenes roles throughout the years, from stage managing high school productions to lighting tech at College of DuPage, to props designer for Redmoon Theater.

She graduated at the top of her class from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a degree in Interior Architecture, and eagerly awaits every opportunity to create, design and light the Camenae stage.
