Megan Beveridge is a full time student and architecture major at the University of Maryland, College Park(link to UMD website). She was born in a row house in Baltimore and grew up in Harford County, Maryland. From a young age she had a love of art, colors, and anything sparkly. Throughout her grade school years and especially at Bel Air High School she expanded her love of drawing (link to page with early artwork) to include new media such as Photoshop, oil pastels, and Prismacolor pencils. Megan knew that she wanted to go into something involving drawing and creativity, but never considered majoring in art due to limited career options. Just before applying to colleges, she settled on the idea of becoming an architect and began her portfolio (link to page with portfolio work). She will soon be entering the School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation (link to ArchUMD site) for her studio training through her junior and senior years at UMD.

In making a Digital Archive of myself, I would include objects that I am proud of and/or attached to. Things from my childhood, awards I’ve received, and my collections. I have saved many of my old things that bring to my mind fond memories. My old Polly Pockets (the original, not the ugly gigantic ones they make today), Magic School Bus books, elementary school awards, medals and ribbons from when I competed in gymnastics and trampoline, and my collections, which are still ongoing. I collect marbles, pencils (decorative ones), stickers, and dragons. More recent objects I include would be mostly digital. Videos of my gymnastics performances, Java programs I’ve written, as well as augmented reality projects I’ve created.
