About

My name is Megan Grubbs. I was born in Fayetteville NC. I moved around quite a bit. I went to high school in Las Cruces, New Mexico and Graduated in Mount Pleasant, MI. I began college part time after high school. When I began working, Managing a group home at 22, I had a hard time getting back to school. I moved back to Las Cruces in April 2019 to help my grand mother and decided to go back to school full time. I am loving DACC and NMSU and working hard to keep a high GPA of 3.9. I have recently been accepted into the Honors Society and feel very fortunate for the opportunity.
