Our Team

Joey is eager to point out that she does not claim to be an expert on all geekeries – she’s just happy to help organize it!  Her current geekery includes British Sci Fi (Doctor Who, MisFits, Orphan Black), Star Wars, All things Marvel, DC TV shows, board games, and is always expanding her circle of fandoms.  She’s mostly prepared for a Zombie Apocalypse, but is always willing to give new technologies a consideration for her war chest.

Although she does not shy away from being queen of the Queen City geeks – she finds it best to hide her identity via an alter ego as a mindless corporate drone.

Matt is the dubious leader of the Guardians of the Geekery (official podcast of The Charlotte Geeks) and is known to rock the mic from way back – both while at Appalachian University as well as on various stations here in Charlotte. Writer of several comics including the creation of Leather Jacket Guy, his fandoms include Star Wars, The Walking Dead, Spiderman, and the Marvel and DC Universes.

Carol is another member of Guardians of the Geekery (official podcast of The Charlotte Geeks) and is a voracious reader and lover of geekery. She helped launch and run The Carolina Renaissance Festival for over 14 years (and the sister festival in Arizona) and was also the programming director for ConCarolinas for 14 years.

The wonderful Wanda keeps Joey as organized as possible – coordinating both registration and the artisans for the Muggles Market.  Wanda’s geekdoms include gaming, fantasy books and movies, folk music, anime, Harry Potter, Firefly, Renn Faire and more.
