About me:

    I am a historian, archaeologist, and museum professional who specializes in Egyptology, ancient Greece, and the study of disability in the ancient world. I have been a fan of Harry Potter since the first book came out (I grew up with the series), and originally stumbled across this site while looking for some new Harry Potter fan-fics to read as it is one of my main sources of stress relief. If you can't already tell from my username Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, and Sherlock Holmes are my other main obsessions. 

 Stargazing was written when I was an undergraduate at college. Since then I have been professionally published in the world of academia, and am currently working on a nonfiction children's book series and recently completed my PhD.
