Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel and DC
Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this Fangirl?
I am a mom to 2 young boys, ages 8 and 5, who have acquired my taste in sci-fi and comics, and like me, they are not afraid to show it. I married my high school sweetheart who loves this stuff as much as I do. Also, I’m a superhero in real life because I use x-rays to detect breast cancer baddies which may be lurking inside my beloved patients. I have been a mammographer for almost 17 years, and I absolutely love my job.
How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
I enjoy occasional cosplay, watching Star Wars, Star Trek, and comic book movies, and proudly displaying my action figures on a shelf at work, despite the funny looks I sometimes get from people who don’t understand.
What is her favorite quote or personal motto?
“I take orders from just one person: ME!” — Han Solo
What is her favorite Fangirl item that she cannot live without?
My large collection of action figures. I am 39 years old, but I still cannot leave a department store without perusing the toy aisle.
