Steph Hay grew up a mile from Brad Wise in Tiffin, Ohio. Then again, Tiffin is only like 3 miles long so that's not saying much. Anyway, Steph left Tiffin for Athens, where she was on the Ohio U springboard diving team and got two degrees in journalism (one was plenty, really). Then she moved to DC, got a job, got a cat, and met her fiancé whose last name is Swasey, so she definitely will be editing her bio soon. She's into CrossFit, BBC programs, warm sandwiches, and the Rebel Storytellers Podcast.
