I live in Cochise County, Arizona, USA.
I was two classes away from an AA degree in Biology concentrating on genetics before my microbiology/genetics instructor tried to use me as a test case to the Californian educational system to have Dyslexia removed from the disability list used by the collegiate system. I switched majors and received an AA in Business Administration with weaving, metalworking and genealogy for all my electives and as many general education classes as I could.
I have a BA in ISSM: Computer Animated Art and Design, combining the three majors of Theater, Art, and Computer Programming (regarding graphics editing) from the CSU system. I was one of only two female students in advanced animation classes at my university. I minored in silver-smithing and lapidary stonecutting for my sculpture components.
The first book I can remember my mother reading to me was “The Hobbit” by JRR Tolkien. I have an abiding passion for SF and Fantasy literature and movies. I have been a historical re-enactor soff and on since the 1990's. My main focus is medieval and renaissance Europe with associated hobbies and interests. I am also a "bad" movie fan and have a collection of B movies, but most are SC-FI, Fantasy, History, with some Film Noir.
