BIO:
Carly is a native of Redding California, where she aspired to a life of service at a young age while watching her mother's community leadership through the Redding East Rotary. Carly attended the University of California, Davis where she played intercollegiate volleyball and graduated with a dual Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Communications. Carly began her career with the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation in 2007, co-launching the national endurance program, Team Challenge, then taking the helm as Executive Director in San Diego in 2011. Carly resides in Solana Beach with her husband, sons Jack and Travis, and Labrador Retriever, Zack. She is a proud Paul Harris Fellow.
Megan Nicholson is the Development Coordinator at Crohn's and Colitis Foundation. She was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis right when she turned 25, which was quite a surprise since she had never been sick in her life. She is going to tell us her story at the end.
Fun fact: She used to be a lead dancer for a world famous Tahitian dance company out of LA. For 13+ plus years she would go on yearly tours with them internationally to entertain and promote cultural awareness of the Tahitian and Polynesian cultures.
