Tatum Sommer earned her English degree summa cum laude from Texas A&M University, where she also minored in Technical Writing and Editing. This upcoming fall, she will pursue her master’s degree in Women’s Literature at the University of California, Irvine.

When she not writing her latest piece, hunched over a book, or learning new languages, you can find her wrapped up in the company of her two cats, Rita and Toby.
