HP history: My little brother said wizards were cool and I should read this book about a kid named Harry. In order to prove to him that wizards weren't cool, I read it to make fun of him. Unfortunately for me, wizards ARE cool. Been hooked ever since.
Personal life: I'm making a career out of being a student, starting my masters this year. I like trees and fish and otherwise outdoorsy stuff, so when I'm not glued to this screen or planning some event for the site - I'm usually out being a nerd.
Favorite food: Sweet tea

HP History: The publicity that the Goblet of Fire novel was receiving pre-release annoyed me (what was this book that was being mentioned on Newsround?!). I’ve never been much of a book reader, so I caught my family and friends by surprise when I asked for the three books for my birthday. And then the magical journey began!
Personal life: I’m a university student, studying my favourite branches of science. Academics aside, I’m very interested in music and play the electric (since 2007) and acoustic (since 2004) guitar, as well the piano and didgeridoo.

HP history: I discovered the Harry Potter books on one of those long visits to family in another state. My younger cousin had the first three books, and my younger sister picked them up to read. When I finally managed to steal them for myself, I enjoyed the first two, but it was PoA that got me truly hooked. I've been members of a few websites and groups, mostly those dealing with really nerdy in-depth study and oddball theories about what's to come, but I came to SS through the first Potter Project over two years ago.
Personal life: In my spare time, and when I'm not on SS, I enjoy reading, writing, movies, and generally goofing off with friends.

HP history: I bought the first book as a birthday present for my husband, then ended up snagging it and reading it myself. From there, I read the next four in like a month. Then thought I'd die waiting for book 6. In retrospect, I'm lucky I started late on them ... there was a lot less waiting time that way. Anyway, I got everyone in my family hooked on the books - even my grandmother! My favorite HP book is Chamber of Secrets and favorite HP film is Prisoner of Azkaban.
Personal life: I was born and raised in L.A. (If I had a dollar for every earthquake I've been through ...) I'm married and have two kids - 10 and 13 - both HP fanatics, thank you very much! My husband is a jujitsu instructor – that’s how we met (I'm a green belt). I went to film school (that sounds so L.A., I know) and graduated university with a communications/film degree. I worked for awhile as a film editor and, before you ask, no I don't work in the movie business anymore - those people are weird. Anyway, I've been working as a copy editor for a cancer research hospital for over 10 years, helping them promote their latest discoveries and such through the media.

Residing In: Wales, UK
News territory: United Kingdom
HP history: I first read Harry Potter when I was about 10, but didn't become a fan until around the release of PoA. From then on I was hooked. I loved the fact that I got to grow up with Harry. Oddly enough he's been the one consistent element in my life for about 10 years. I love the books dearly but am also a great fan of the films, often turning into an apologist for the cuts they make. LOL
Personal life: I've just finished an undergraduate degree in Journalism, Film & Media at Cardiff University. For now, I'm unemployed, but I hope to get a job in marketing and PR with a view to writing for television (thereby combining my two biggest passions) in the future. I love hanging out with friends, especially those from the university Harry Potter society (for which I've been on the executive committee for 2 years). I love watching films, watching tv, travelling, going to conventions & generally doing other geeky fandom stuff. I also love reading, writing, laughing, joking around, listening (& singing, badly...) to cheesey pop music, shopping, visiting places of historical interest & spending time with my family.

Born On: June 6th
Residing In: NSW, Australia
HP History: : One of my friends was encouraging me to read the series, but I didn't get to read them until after seeing The Philosopher's Stone. I was instantly hooked and got the released books (1-4 at the time) immediately. Rest is history.
Personal Life: I work a lot in a job I love. I also love my family, animals, music, books and cold weather. Oh. And I say 'no worries'. A lot.

Years of Service:
Admin since 2009, Mod since 2006
Born On: February 2, 1987
Residing In: Puerto Rico
Languages: English and Spanish (learning Japanese on my own. Pretty mediocre at it still)
HP history: I borrowed my stepbrother's copy of Sorcerer's stone during a family picnic. I finished the book the same day. Hooked, I made my Mother take me immediately the other day to get Chamber of Secrets and Prisoner of Azkaban. After that it was pretty much just starry eyed love.
Personal life: I'm a 22 year old Communications student (nearly finishing! *flailflail*), I live with my grandfather, little brother, mother and stepfather. I have three dogs and a bird. I wish I could have even MORE pets. I love animals of almost every kind--except insects, especially roaches, childhood trauma.

Most like: Minerva McGonagall
HP history: I never wanted to read HP. It was too hyped up and I hate getting involved with really popular things. But, one day I went over to visit my in-laws and my mother in-law had SS on the TV. I loved it. So, I went out and bought it and the newly released CoS on DVD. Then, I had to read the books because I just had to find out more about this Snape character and what happened next. Once I finished GoF I scoured the web to find out when the next book would be released. I spent a lot of time on thesnitch.com but, when I started looking for more than just news I decided to browse their affiliates. That's how I found SS and I've been here ever since.
Personal life: I am married to a wonderful man who indulged me by reading the first five books and came with my mom (another huge fan) and me to the opening night showing of PoA. We were married October 26, 2002 and on May 18, 2005 we welcomed our first son, Alexander Shawn, into the world. I quit my job as a biochemist at Dartmouth Medical School to be a full time mom. On January 4, 2007 we had a daughter, Elizabeth Kristi. I am currently taking online courses toward my Masters in biochemistry in between taking Xander to/from preschool, entertaining the kids, cleaning our church and putting together the bulletins. I spend my free time on SS and crocheting.
Favorite food: Chocolate anything (as long as it isn't ruined by fruit, which was meant to be eaten whole, fresh, raw & unadulterated)

Born On: … wouldn’t you like to know.
Residing In: The USA
HP history: Kevin has read all of the HP books.
Personal life: Kevin is a technical genius but, he is incredibly busy so he can only pop in from time to time to make SS a better place from behind the scenes. He's responsible for most of the nifty new gadgets that pop up from time to time. Kris can't remember what else Kevin wouldn't mind being public knowledge so this is all you get for Kevin's bio by Kris. LOL
