Alison "Boom" Baumgartner

Boom believes the truth is out there, and that there is no such thing as a final frontier. She isn’t, however, entirely convinced that a towel is that useful for all situations.She is the author of 'Dora's Jinx', 'The Death of Israel Leventhal', and 'Pay-Per-View Ragnarok and Other Modern Myths'. All are available on Amazon.As a science fiction nerd, she has written her Masters dissertation on spatial philosophy in Star Trek, and hosts Charlie Foxtrot (A Stargate Universe podcast) as well as The Five Year Mission (a Star Trek Podcast).The things she likes outside of Science Fiction include British panel shows, writing young adult stories, reciting the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in an attempt to be ironically cool, and sketch comedies.
