Biography
Constance Fay was born in Fargo, ND in 1983, the daughter of Jack Fay--a cowboy turned businessman--and Dr. Carolyn Gillespie Fay--a theater professor turned communications professor. The family moved from North Dakota to New Jersey, and finally to Arizona--which means that Constance spent her formative years picking up a truly dreadful combination of accents. Between a mother with a background in Shakespeare and a father who told her gender swapped versions of Edgar Rice Burroughs tales at bedtime, she developed a love of romantic and adventurous stories early on. In high school, she excelled in academics, was adequate at cross country, and was spectacularly bad at soccer. She began writing--a literal work in progress.
Constance went to college at the University of Arizona--starting her time in academia by tumbling down a flight of stairs directly into a lecture hall. Uninjured, she went on to earn a bachelor's degree from the College of Optical Sciences and Engineering--meaning she liked playing with lasers and hoped that a future might come of it. She spent the next assortment of years working at a selection of medical device companies (sadly, no lasers) in Jacksonville, FL, the San Francisco Bay Area, Tampa, FL, and SoCal. During that time, she also completed her MBA. In 2020 she moved to Denver, Colorado, where she currently resides.
