Bree Brouwer

Bree was introduced to the geek world when the sun started to set at the cabin in Flagstaff, AZ where her family was vacationing one winter; since she was stuck inside for the chilly night, her dad popped in a VHS of Star Wars (the original A New Hope). Bree's life would never be the same. In the intervening years she has developed a love for typically-geek franchises like Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Marvel, DC, Chronicles of Narnia, Halo, Minecraft, Fallout, and more. Bree spends most of her time doing a job she loves: building up her expertise in freelance writing for online video and digital media brands (yes, that means she watches a lot of YouTube). In her free time, she writes fan fiction, wrecks people in Halo, builds wicked structures in Minecraft, studies the intersection of philosophy and culture, researches her Dutch heritage, works out so she can drink craft beer with her hubby, and binges Netflix while snuggling with their adopted alley cat, Mango. In 2013 Bree began co-hosting the Behind Schedule segment of Shauncastic and began guesting on the podcast. In 2017 she also began participating on The 42cast, sharing her love of Tolkien and the Wonder Woman film. She is not a Cylon. She loves making new friends on Twitter.
