Great coaches teach the fundamentals of the game well. And they use those foundational skills as building blocks for communication, team building, and leadership growth.

A former collegiate athlete, assistant basketball coach, and athletic administrator, Megan has elevated the WeCOACH through a complete rebrand (Alliance of Women Coaches to WeCOACH in 2018), a new strategic plan, developed several new programs and resources, and well as magnified the reach of WeCOACH on a national level with corporate sponsors, partners, and members. 

Megan founded her own collegiate consulting company, KAHNSULTING, is a founding committee member of the WISE-Tampa Bay chapter, and served as a member of the Local Organizing Advisory Committee for the 2019 NCAA Women’s Basketball Final Four. She is a graduate of the NCAA Women Coaches Academy (2004), NACWAA/HERS (2006), and the Sports Management Institute (2011-12).
