Deandra Lanier

My name is Deandra. I grew up in Utah, went to Catholic school, and studied English Lit and Spanish at the University of Utah. I graduated in 2011 with my Bachelor's in both of those. I am married to a great guy named Kyler and we have a blind dog named Crash and a little Calico cat named Machiatto. I have traveled to Spain, Germany, Prague, Budapest, Mexico, and a few other places, mostly through school programs, and I am so very thankful for those experiences. I work as an Executive for Target and enjoy that. I love to read and to write. I'm a nerd for literary criticism and theory and that reflects in my writing. My Catholic upbringing also reflects in some of the things I write, though I am no longer practicing. Finally....I have red hair and I love Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider.
