Over the past few years, between jokes about The Sopranos, Bon Jovi, the Pork Roll vs. Taylor Ham debate, and supporting the recognition of Central Jersey, the White House Twitter has become the most talked-about account on the platform. And the one behind this new way of operating an otherwise mundane government operation is none other than Megan Coyne.
So, who is she? Let’s find out in this writing called ‘Megan Coyne Bio’.
Meet New Jersey’s Megan Coyne, The Person Behind The White House Twitter
If you noticed that the official Twitter account of the White House was a little sassier than usual on 25th August (2022) and that was also Megan Coyne’s doing.
After President Joe Biden announced student loan forgiveness a day before, Twitter exploded with reactions from all sides including many criticisms. But the one Megan handled was quick to troll many of the announcement’s detractors.
Megan is the White House’s Deputy Director of Platforms, a post she started earlier in August 2022. Before taking the job in Washington, she was the social media director for the Murphy administration.
After five years of interning on Phil Murphy’s 2017 gubernatorial campaign, Megan Coyne had headed to the White House. “An absolute dream come true” Megan had said of joining the Office of Digital Strategy as Deputy Director of Platforms.
With her boss at the time, Pearl Gabel, Megan helped bring life and a quintessential New Jersey manner to a once dull state-run Twitter account.
Megan on her own Twitter entertained 67.6K Followers as of 27 August 2022. She could be found on Facebook as well but on Instagram.

Also known as Tom Coyne, the patriarch had been working as a site manager at Time Inc. in Livingston, New Jersey, United States (as of the time of this writing).
During Father’s Day back in 2020, Megan took to her Twitter to share that her father was released from the hospital a day before after falling off their roof two weeks ago. In true dad fashion, she said, he had yelled at her to stop crying while they waited for an ambulance. That year they had therefore celebrated the day with a cake with “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY. WE ARE GLAD YOU DIDN’T DIE WHEN YOU FELL OFF THE ROOF” written on its frosting.
Besides, Megan has four siblings and all of them are superior to her in age.
There is sister Kelly P Coyne of Livingston who turned 29 on 19 August 2022, brother John Coyne, sister Maisy Coyne, and brother Gavin. Of them, it is Gavin, who played Boys Lacrosse at Livingston High School from 2018 through 2022.

Then, one time, Megan referred to the famous Jim and Pam (from The Office) as her forever relationship goals. In fact, she has more than once tweeted that all she would like to have is a relationship like Jim and Pam. Maybe she will find the one she is looking for in her own office.
