Lia "Elle" Mertens attends the University of Texas at Austin majoring in Biology. She fell in love with all things artsy at four-years-old and has been writing, drawing, and telling stories ever since. Alongside this, she carries a continuous fascination with natural sciences that stems from a childhood of reading "Warriors" books and exploring the woods.
When not writing, she spends her time doodling, reading her friends' writing, or training as a member of the UT Weightlifting Team. Eventually, she hopes of publishing her own novel in addition to pursuing higher education.
