BIOGRAPHY
Brett Davis, who earned a bachelor's degree in journalism from Western Washington University, has written for newspapers, public policy organizations, a major humanitarian organization and a software company. He is not, in spite of his profile photo, a lumberjack. He is, however, a father whose hobbies include reading, cooking, trying to stay in shape as he hurtles toward 50, and martial arts. In addition, he is fluent in both snark and sarcasm, which makes him bilingual -- sort of. Brett lives in Federal Way, Washington (state, not D.C.), with his awesome girlfriend. Rest in peace, Felix, my little buddy (2005 - Sept. 9, 2020).
