About the Author

I'm a 25 year-old doctoral student, musician, and enthusiast of all-things-nerdy, having lived my whole life in Texas until now. I grew up in the Dallas area, and completed my bachelors and masters degrees in Lubbock, home of Buddy Holly et al. I'm a ridiculously obsessive Harry Potter fan and I have a pet guinea pig named Samwise (the Brave). I've never been into the social scene of people my own age, and prefer hanging around at home or reading a book to getting wasted at frat parties. When I travel, I spend my time at places of historical or cultural significance. I'm excited to see where my time in Memphis takes me. :)
