Meet Our Team!
Megan Young - Owner
Megan is incredibly grateful and honored to run Forever Young Fine Jewelers. It was not something she had planned for her life, but she feels that God definitely had a hand in it, she loves it, and she wouldn't change it!
Megan and her late husband, Jeremy, began Forever Young Fine Jewelers together in April 2016. Jeremy had previously worked for McArthur Jewelers and when the McArthurs decided to close and retire, Megan and Jeremy began Forever Young in the same location.
Jeremy suffered with depression, bipolar, narcolepsy as well as a myriad of other health conditions which led to him ending his life in April 2018.
Megan has continued to run the store and continues to be amazed at the blessings and team members that have come to the store just at the right time to make it what it is today.
Megan graduated as Valedictorian from BYU with a BA in Dance and a Minor in Business Management. Along with running Forever Young Fine Jewelers, Megan is an adjunct dance professor at Utah Tech University. She also loves running marathons, hiking, singing, and listening to audible books.
But Megan's favorite way to spend her time is raising and going on adventures with her three children.
Megan's integrity is of utmost importance to her. Her goal is to treat each person that walks through the door with the respect and kindness that she would want if she were in their shoes. She strives to keep a welcoming environment for both her team members and her customers.
"Thank you for visiting our website. We would be honored to be your jeweler."

Mike is very passionate about making sure his customers receive the best possible experience and are treated like family when they are in the store.

What Mike loves most about being in jewelry, is the people that he gets to develop relationships with.

Away from the store, Mike loves spending time with his wife Casey and their four kids. He loves to golf, travel, hike, kayak and almost any outdoor activity.
