Author bio

Majoring in Japanese and Religious Studies, minoring in Psychology, Women’s and Gender Studies, and International Studies, Julianna has always had a love of learning. She enjoys reading comic books, fiction, nonfiction, spell books, how-to manuals, and junk mail. Most of her time is spent with friends and family going on various adventures; including bungee-jumping, volunteering at local shelters and nonprofits, and watching every possible summer blockbuster. Her love of Marvel superheroes and the Percy Jackson series are only rivaled by her love of Disney princesses and queer characters. Her greatest hope has been to inspire people to pursue their interests and to be who they are; unapologetically and fantastically.
