Sarah has been into SFF since junior high when she worked her way through anything that looked interesting in the library science fiction section over a couple of summers. She loves Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel, Seanan McGuire, Tansy RR, filk, renaissance faire, social justice, environmentalism, and involvement in the local school, Methodist Church, and Girl Scouts. She's a queer person with an amazing husband and gender creative kid. Professionally she helps fund the transition in transportation to alternative and renewable fuels and technology; she's especially excited by public transit, and the school bus replacement program.
