Alumni Stories Megan Shrader Alexander '02

Megan Shrader Alexander ’02 wanted to be a broadcast journalist, so she started out as a communications studies major. “I thrived on delivering speeches and winning over my audience,” she says. Deciding she needed to understand the news to report it better, she switched to political science. Today Megan draws on both disciplines as a correspondent for the television show Inside Edition. “From day one, I appreciated the conversation at Westmont: How do we respond to this world as Christians?” she says. Megan believes God called her into broadcasting for a reason. “Every job is a mission field. I encourage all Westmont students to dream big! We should never limit what God can do through us in any career.”
