Megan Fabry—Freelance Writer

Born and raised in Omaha, this one-third of triplets spent most of her childhood hanging out with her other two-thirds and their older brother. Fabry graduated from the University of Nebraska at Omaha with a journalism and media communications degree, and a minor in English, and spent much of her time working as the arts and entertainment editor for the UNO newspaper The Gateway. Although she travels often for work, her true joy is traveling for leisure, where she can cross items off her bucket list one at a time. In her spare time, she likes hunting for discount books, spending time with her family, and collecting vinyl records.
