Megan LaPlante

VP of Finance and Accounting

My Favorite Core Value Is “Leadership Is a Responsibility”

Megan brings a decade of financial firepower to fast-moving startups and scaling businesses. At Waterton Partners, she leads the charge as VP of Accounting and Finance, helping clients untangle complexity, build clean systems, and make smarter decisions with their numbers. Her collaborative, no-BS style makes her a go-to partner for companies that want more than just another spreadsheet jockey.

She earned her degree from the University of Southern Indiana and now calls the Denver metro area home.
