Hi, I'm Meaghan, originally from the Northeast and I've spent the last 7 years in Raleigh! I'm currently an HR Professional focusing on early talent recruitment. But my real joy comes from building meaningful relationships. So in 2021, I had the pleasure of learning about Triangle YP Civitan Group and l never looked back! It's been my biggest honor to belong to Triangle YP and getting to know all of our wonderful & altruistic members while giving back to our local community. When I'm not at work or YP events you can find me chasing beach sunsets and finding the best places in town to sit under twinkle lights, or watching my latest binge worthy TV show!

I moved to Raleigh in 2021 and I work as a Software Engineer. I found Triangle YP Civitan as I was trying to build my local social network and quickly grew fond of it due to its core values, giving back to the community and building a good social network. I joined the board of the Triangle YP Civitan in 2023 as Projects Chair and served roughly 1 year in that position before becoming the President Elect. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, running, snowboarding, and hiking.

I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 2018 with a degree in Environmental Science. I now work as an Environmental Planner, where I focus on transportation projects and minimizing their impact on the environment. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, playing tennis, and hanging out with my dog Ollie!

I'm originally from New Jersey and moved to North Carolina to attend Elon University where I graduated with my degree in Special & Elementary Education. I have been in the Triangle for the past 9 years and joined the Civitans in 2023. Being a former Girl Scout and Epsilon Sigma Alpha member, Civitans became a great way to reconnect with volunteering, give back to my community and make some new friends. I especially love volunteering with organizations that support my students. When I'm not teaching or at a Civitans event, you can catch me at a yoga class, crafting or binging reality TV.

I joined Triangle YP Civitan in 2020 and now serve on the board as Treasurer. After studying engineering at Purdue University, I made my way to North Carolina where I earned my MBA at NC State (Go Pack!) and settled in Raleigh with my wife, Kaitlyn. During the week, I work as an engineer in product development, but in my free time you’ll find me photographing weddings with Kaitlyn, hitting the trails for a hike, running local races, or walking our dogs. I was drawn to Civitan for the chance to build meaningful friendships while giving back to the community.

Hi! I'm Lauryn, I'm originally from New Jersey. I attended High Point University with a BA in English Writing and Lenior Rhyne University with an MA in Writing. I have spent most of my career in nonprofit social media and am now in higher education. I moved to Durham in 2021 and joined Civitan in 2024. It has been one of the best decisions I've made yet. I love getting to know our members and giving back to our community. I'm an avid runner, I love being outside, watching basketball and traveling.

I graduated from Western Carolina University with a degree in Natural Resource Management in 2017 and have lived in Raleigh since 2022. I am an environmental scientist for the State of North Carolina. I found Civitan in 2023 and have been throughly enjoying this social group with a volunteering problem ever since I joined. In my spare time I enjoy traveling to national parks, exploring local food opportunities, and experience whatever fun activities the Triangle has to offer.

Hi, I’m Rhianna, the Social Chair for YP Civitan. Originally from Maryland, I earned my BA in Psychology from Florida Gulf Coast University in 2018 before relocating to Raleigh. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Environmental Assessment and GIS at NC State. Civitan has been an incredible opportunity to balance meaningful volunteer work with social connection. Through this group, I’ve built relationships with other young professionals in the Triangle while contributing to projects that make a positive impact on our community. In my free time, I love exploring North Carolina with my partner and my dog, whether it’s paddleboarding, country line dancing, or finding the best bar trivia spots.

I joined Civitan in 2023 and was delighted to find a community of like-minded individuals passionate about public service. I moved to Durham in 2021 from Seattle, Washington, where I received an MPA from the University of Washington. I’ve been volunteering for much of my adult life- as a US Peace Corps Volunteer in the Philippines, campaigning for Obama for America, or as a scholarship application reviewer for HBCU students. In my free time, I enjoy making pottery, camping, hiking, and live music.
