Morgan Richard, B.A., B.Sc., is a doctoral student in social psychology at the University of New Brunswick, supervised by Dr. Lucia O'Sullivan. Morgan received her Bachelor of Arts (2018) and Bachelor of Science (2019) from the University of New Brunswick. Her research focus on sexual violence began with her undergraduate Honors research entitled Rape Myth Acceptance and Its Associations with Bystander Intervention Attitudes and Sexual Assault.

Morgan's research with massage therapists began when she was asked to analyze data from a survey created by the Association of New Brunswick Massage Therapists about sexual harassment and assault of massage therapists by their clients. After seeing what a prominent issue this was in her own province, Morgan conducted a national study in collaboration with the Canadian Massage Therapy Association. This study was completed in 2025 when Morgan collected additional data from massage therapists in Québec in collaboration with the Fédération Québécoise des Massothérapeutes Agréés. For her dissertation research, Morgan is focusing on investigating sexual harassment and assault against massage therapists in the United States.

Alongside her academic work, Morgan has worked in the gender-based violence prevention sector for the past 10 years as the Project Coordinator of the non-profit organization, the Fergusson Foundation, which aims to prevent and eliminate family violence.
