Experience
Lyvie is an Altanta-based writer with bylines at Inverse, Film Cred, CBR, and Blossom Magazine. She studied performing arts and dramatic writing at SCAD — and worked on several film sets in that time — so her takes on the industry often come from personal experience. Lyvie cut her teeth in fandom spaces all across the internet, and has since found a way to funnel that niche knowledge into her professional work. She feels most at home when dissecting entertainment through an analytical lens. No topic is too silly — and her reviews, personal essays, and interviews all strive to elevate perspectives that are notoriously overlooked.

Lyvie has a Bachelor's of Fine Arts with a focus in performing arts.
