JAMIE
Co-Admin, Editor, Author
Jamie has an English degree with a focus in creative writing from The Ohio State University. This helped with self-publishing her very own novel. (Not quite positive how it helped, but surely it did.) The Perils of Long Hair on a Windy Day is available through Amazon and has sold very well among her family members. Her second novel is perpetually in progress. For a while, she tried her hand at vlogging – but shhh, we don’t talk about that.
Jamie reviews The Expanse, Haikyuu, Attack on Titan, and One Punch Man, just to name a few. She also recommends some great TV that you’re missing out on and contributes her insight on movies. She reviews books as she works her way through her massive “to read” pile. Jamie is a member of the San Diego Comic-Con team as well as part of our New York crew, helping cover numerous events in the Big Apple, including New York Comic Con. Check out her NYCC Beginner’s Guide!
Jamie helps with back end operations of the website, including merchandise giveaways and social media. Occasionally she pops up in our themed webcasts. She previously wrote for Fangirlish.

She studied anthropology at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, alternately amusing and confusing people with her academic analysis of fandom culture.

In between serious research, she hosted a comedy radio program called The ROFLCopter Radio Show.
Since leaving academia, Khai has been writing, hitting conventions, and creating games (both board games and RPGs) with Calico Games. She’s been staff for several LARPS and conventions including New World Magischola and PenguiCon. PenguiCon is also where she led a convention panel on creating board and card games.
Khai is co-editor of (and contributor to) a comic anthology called True War Stories, out in March from Z2 Comics. She’s been a guest on the popular nerdy podcast Comics Squee and serves as admin for several social media groups including the multi-platform The Gish Network.

RODNEY
Contributor
Rodney recently graduated from university with a Bachelor’s Degree in English Literature. When he’s not spending all of his free time planning and writing fanfiction, he’s building things in The Sims 4, and thinking up ideas for novels that he wants to eventually get around to writing.
As a contributor for The Geekiary, he provides insight into all things geek-related. Although, it’s safe to say that he has a serious soft spot for the world of superheroes, mystery, magic, and fandom. If there’s news brewing in the realm of Marvel or Scooby-Doo, he’s probably geeking out about it and figuring out how to properly translate his excitement into an intelligible article.
