Megan Poindexter

Megan Poindexter is the only female writer at valleysportspulse.com and the youngest member at 19-years -old.  Born in Ventura, Ca she moved to Clovis with her family in 1993 and has since been active in community sports.

She graduated from Clovis High School in 2007 where she was a cross country and track runner.  As a long distance runner she was All-Valley in both sports and found herself with the opportunity to run at the collegiate level at Fresno State. However, due to a career ending foot injury she has been unable to compete while still contributes to the Bulldog program.

As far as her writing, Megan began covering high school sports while at the age of 16. She has done freelance work with the Fresno Bee, Bakersfield Californian, Sacramento Bee, Tacoma Tribune and many other media outlets. Working at valleysportspulse.com has been her most exciting adventure yet. Working side by side with George Takata she has contributed to the development of the site and is now learning many new things about the advertising realm of things.

Megan plans to graduate with her BA in journalism in December and then head to down to L.A. to hopefully pursue a career in journalism and/or public relations. She has high goals and aspirations for a career in sports media and a desire to work with professional athletes through various charities.
