  • Tatum Sommer earned her English degree summa cum laude from Texas A&M University, where she also minored in Technical Writing and Editing. Her work delves into pop culture and women’s literature, tracing how images and stories reflect and reshape the world around us.

    When I’m not writing my latest piece, hunched over a book, or exploring new languages like Hindi, you can usually find me wrapped up in the company of my two cats, Rita and Toby.
