Hi there!
My name is Kati Brown. I live in Colorado with my husband and two boys, a teen and a tween. I am a huge nerd/geek. I got a Bachelor’s in English Literature & Language with a minor in Writing from the University of Northern Colorado. (Go Bears!) With my husband, I volunteer in The Rebel Legion, a Star Wars charity costuming group. My family is really into movies, video games, and anything pop culture related, so we can often be found at “nerd conventions,” movie theaters, and on our gaming PCs. I also play dog agility with my American Hairless Terrier, Dash.
