What to say, what to say. I am a government contractor for my real job :) and am in school full time working on my PhD in Emergency Management. I have two Bachelor's degrees, one in Information Technolgy and one in Information Assurance (system security), and a Master's degree in Project Management. In what little spare time I have these days, I enjoy reading (something other than textbooks), and riding my horse. I am an avid aquarist as well with several aquariums dotting the house, spanning all levels of the hobby incliuding freshwater, bracksish water and saltwater reefs.

The Harry Potter series was well written and while slightly off my normal reading level, were very enjoyable. A friend put me on to fanfiction and knowing my penchant for writing, encouraged me to submit. I have always enjoyed creative writing and general writing, and have been told more than once that I should work on a book. Other than publishing requirement for the PhD, I would prefer to remain somewhat anonymous :)
