KATIE LOOMIS (SHE/HER)
SHOW MANAGER

The Proclaimers may be willing to walk 500 miles, but Katie will never again drive 1600 miles alone. You can usually find her spending time with family & friends, being an aunt to the “coolest kid on the planet,” walking her dog, or planning her next adventure. You’ll also find her watching British crime dramas. They’re her go-to viewing content right now. Knowing that, we think it’s easy to deduce which fictional character she’d be best friends with: Sherlock Holmes. Holmes wasn’t her first taste of fandom, though. Her first experience was watching hockey as a kid, something that she hasn’t stopped doing since then.

AUTUMN HATHAWAY (SHE/HER)
OPERATIONS COORDINATOR

Pop-ups? She’s there. Autumn loves unique experiences, themed spaces, and sharing good company. As a fan of pop culture, she started out with New Kids on the Block and Teen Beat magazine and is now also a fan of movies and shows, especially Buffy the Vampire Slayer. If you want to talk '90s or Buffy, she's your girl. Autumn is also a frequenter of pop culture conventions–hey, she loves what she does. So, if you see her on a show floor, be sure to wave hi. Like many fandom fans, she’s a collector and proudly owns the magic that comes with many Minnie Mouse ears.

JENNIFER NORMOYLE (SHE/HER)
EVENT CONTENT COORDINATOR

Jennifer is the ultimate Disney fan. From first visiting the Parks at 5 years old and still going to this day, to dreaming of The Nightmare Before Christmas Tsums series and adding to her toy collection from all-things Disney (including Star Wars and, yes, more The Nightmare Before Christmas), Jennifer has always been the biggest Disney enthusiast. When she’s not living and breathing Disney, you can find Jennifer working through her over 40 TV shows. A self-proclaimed TV junkie, she literally has an app dedicated to tracking every show she watches. She’s also a huge fan of Howl's Moving Castle. Between the characters, the stories, and Sophie's transformation, what's not to love?

ALEX WER (HE/HIM)
SALES MANAGER

Introducing the award-winning pumpkin artist, The Pumpkin Geek. When Alex isn’t winning awards for his jaw-dropping pumpkin carvings, he’s writing and recording music in his studio. Did we mention that he was once offered a recording contract with Capitol Records in 1993? He’s also managed to master the art of becoming Spider-Man… he’s jumped off his roof many times and has never been hurt. In his off time, you can find Alex watching Friends, Modern Family, This is Us, or any of Emily Blunt’s projects (he loves everything she does).

NIKO HARRIS (HE/HIM)
SALES ACCOUNT COORDINATOR

Niko is always ready for a throwback, especially if it’s related to The Golden Girls. Thank you for being a friend, Niko. And thanks to Niko’s older brother for introducing him to fandom through comic books. Now, as an adult, Niko is a fan of Daredevil and Black Panther. You never forget your first fandom. Niko is also a hero himself, as he's a dad to two incredible twins.

DUSTI TRAMONTANO (SHE/HER)
MARKETING COORDINATOR

By far, Dusti is the most humblest. She’s the number one at the top of the FAN EXPO humble list. When she isn’t watching Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, Whiplash, Avatar, or even, yes, Hotel Transylvania 3, you can find Dusti out living her best life. From seeing the Jonas Brothers in concert to flying cross country to watch Just for Laughs, you never really know where Dusti will be. She brings the fun with her everywhere she goes, so you can always count on a good time if she’s around. A little tip: don’t ask her about the Roomba - she may have spent too much money on the little robotic friend than she should have. To get back on her good side, just mention Adam Driver. She loves him so much that she recently got a giant Kylo Ren tattoo on her arm.

CLAUDIA WIESE (SHE/HER)
SENIOR MANAGER, EXHIBITOR & SPONSORSHIP RELATIONS

Claudia’s earliest adventure into Fandom was waiting in line for the 4th Harry Potter book release at Chapters. Since then, you can catch her watching True Detective (Season 1), Grand Budapest Hotel, or daydreaming about being best friends with Deb Morgan from Dexter. If someone from the Fandom world were to play Claudia in a movie about her life, it would have to be Jennifer Lawrence. That’s for sure. If you’re the type of person to wear socks & sandals while watching TikTok, it’s generally best to steer clear of Claudia—just a fair warning. If you like yoga, hiking, or veggies & humus, however, you and Claudia will get along just fine.
