Known as one of the fastest rising young stars in Hollywood, this olive skinned beauty has French, Irish and Native American ancestry, which contribute to Megan’s one of a kind exotic looks. She is best known for her role as Faith Ford’s on screen daughter, Sydney Shanowski in Hope & Faith and Mikaela Banes from Transformers film.
Megan grew up in a very poor household, but this did not stop her parents from encouraging her interest in arts at an early age. At age 5, Megan started to attend drama and dance classes.
