Born in the central valley farm town of Modesto, Amanda is an easy-going person but she loves fun and adventure with friends. She is out-going and (mostly) shameless about the things she loves most. She has a Bachelor of Science degree in Graphic Design and spends her weekdays working for a firm that specializes in non-profit and small business marketing. Amanda lives in Sacramento with her boyfriend (to whom she may as well be married) and one crazy cat, Cocoanut. In her spare time, she volunteers for FanimeCon as their Art and Illustration manager and character designer, working with a team of artists to create art to promote the annual event in San Jose, CA. Her hobbies include illustration, concert photography, anime, manga, Gothic and Lolita fashion, and music. She also loves cute things, sparkly things, and cute sparkly things.
