Kristen Mollica – Senior Editor
Kristen Mollica was forged in the fires of Mount Doom, also known as Long Island, with the One Ring. She graduated from Hofstra University with a degree in English — a degree only slightly more useful than one in Psychology, Philosophy, or Art History. She somehow wound up on the doorsteps of Ajax Union in a land far, far away known as Brooklyn. In her spare time, Kristen listens to a ridiculous amount of music and drinks and blogs about beer. She finds inspiration in Lolcats and secretly hopes vampires are real.
Christine Melgarejo - Senior Editor
Christine Melgarejo was born and raised in Kew Gardens, Queens. She graduated from Hunter College with a B.A in Media. Besides writing, her other talents include gaming and spewing out incessant amounts of useless Disney trivia. She learned everything she ever had to know about disposing of vampires through Joss Whedon’s work and her greatest heroes are ninjas (particularly of the turtle variety). Her life’s goal is to ride as many different roller coasters as she possibly can.
Tim Duffy – Senior Editor
Tim Duffy was born, raised and is likely to die on Staten Island. He was educated at Saint Francis College in Brooklyn, NY where he earned a degree in Communications with a focus on talking loudly. Further educated in the art of improvisational comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater Tim Duffy is now a comedian. He also writes/performs/produces a talk show/podcast called Midevenings with Jay Miller and is an avid Tweeter. Recently Tim’s psychological stability and incredibly high blood pressure suggest each blog post could be his last. Savor them.
Matt Conlin- Senior Editor
Matt Conlin was born and raised on Longisland (yes, it’s pronounced like one word). He graduated from Fordham University with a degree in English and Communications and soon realized that studying film theory and semantics was a pipe dream. In his spare time he surfs YouTube for FAIL moments, reads comic books, and re-watches the X-files wishing that some of the monsters of the week really did exist. He’s an admitted concert junkie and plans to attend a Concert Junkies Anonymous group for rehabilitation.
Kristin Gdula – Senior Editor
Kristin was born in a rural town in western Pennsylvania (but don’t hold that against her.) An avid Nessie hunter and beer lover, she also has a penchant for finding four-leaf clovers. She attended Lycoming College (also in rural PA) and majored in theatre technology. She has had her hand in several Broadway shows and has worked with the Muppets. She writes a blog about perspective called The Five Things Blog. Her life goals are to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro and to live long enough to see the Pittsburgh Pirates have a winning season.
Heinreich T. Sioson – Senior Editor
Heinreich T. Sioson was born in a-place-you-would-never-guess but spent most of his life in the streets of Jersey City, New Jersey. He graduated from Rutgers University – New Brunswick with a major in East Asian Studies which has been useful in ways incomprehensible to those living in this plane of existence: including himself. Heinreich was awarded his position in Ajax Union by slaying the largest known feline creature in existence. His life goals are to find the best-tasting burrito and steak in the world and being the first person to reach 150 years of age.
Daniel Adler – Former Senior Editor
Daniel Adler is a former writer for the AJ Blog Network, and is now off traveling the world in search of renewable fossil fuels and large women. Though born in Brooklyn, Adler moved to Portland, Ore. at age ten. He returned to N.Y.U. to study philosophy and high literature. A purveyor of the fine, the good, and the beautiful, he prizes love and words. The biking trails from Bushwick to Flatbush provide him with time to mull over how best to describe the curve between a woman’s hamstring and gluteus maximus, the absurdity of Sarah Palin’s popularity, and a fine burgundy or pinot noir. He is writing his first novel. (See more of Daniel’s work @ Daniel Adler’s Internet Warehouse)
Eric Marmon – Editor in Chief
A man on the move, Eric Marmon graduated from Hofstra University, is a retired Whaler, and currently resides in the East Village of Manhattan. He can recite all of the words to the first verse of Outkast’s Bombs Over Baghdad, but he needs to dance while he does so. He also truly believes God selected him to write the Third Testament, he has never met Snoop Dogg, and he never kills more than he can eat.
