Julie Doar grew up in New York. As a child, she was mostly bookish but sometimes a bit sporty (mostly because her dad wanted her to be). She has three brothers who have always made her life interesting. She attended Rice University for undergrad and has always loved academics. Additionally, she realized how much she enjoyed living in different cities, so she spent her twenties moving from Texas to San Francisco to Chicago, and then eventually back to Brooklyn. She's worked as a cold-calling Sales Rep, a Starbucks barista, and a romance novel ghostwriter. Currently, she is a middle school English teacher.
