Editor, Writer, Creative, Nerd

A life-long love of the English language—and an innate ability to find grammatical errors in public—led me to pursue a degree in English and Journalism. In the decade-plus since graduating, I've used my skills as a writer and editor in various positions, including jobs with a Texas education association and a large technology company.

Combining these skills with my other love—pop culture—I also sought out opportunities to write online. I currently write my own lifestyle blog and a main writer for a Young Adult literature and pop culture website; I occasionally contribute to a few other sites, too.

I like to consider myself a "small-town girl living in a nerdy world"—I come by it naturally, considering that my parents named me Amanda after Amanda Grayson—and literally wear my nerd heart on my sleeve(s).

I've never lived in a state without a coastline and currently live in Austin, TX, with my husband, our son, and our three dogs.
