As a toddler, Wendy cried every time she heard the song You Are My Sunshine. She was also very particular about nighttime stuffed animal placement. Many years later, she studied Studio Art and Art History at The University of Georgia, wrote a lot of songs, and eventually moved to Austin, TX. There, she quickly realized that Ctrl+Z is much more efficient than a Kneadable Eraser. Since then, she has worked as a graphic designer/illustrator/animator/writer/web designer/songwriter.

She also writes a column called Hello, My Name Is for Austinist.com, runs The Stuffed Animal Rescue Foundation, leads a band called The Casting Couch, shoots cans off of her porch (from her bedroom) with a Red Ryder BB gun, and plays a lot of volleyball. She has excellent hand-eye coordination and is currently working on a play based on a fictional reality TV show involving advertising, marketing professionals, sadness, the internet and outer space.
