Kel ~Rogue Boss~

Based in Delaware, Kel works as a private music teacher. When not teaching string instruments, they enjoy reading 5 books at once, playing their cello and violin, singing along to music, going to local coffee and/or book shops, binging random tv shows, and spending time with their friends, kids & dog.
Kel is also a Rogue Hunt judge.
Benton ~Rogue-End Architect~
Benton is an athlete, a nerd, an avid reader, a cat lover, and a board game enthusiast. Based in the New York, she also enjoy spending time outdoors, learning ASL, and playing rugby. Benton works in an alumni office planning events and is an assistant collegiate rugby coach.
When not busy with the above, they can be found with a cup of tea, having long-winded conversations with their cat, reading, or geeking out over one of many fandoms. They also love competitive scavenger hunts of all kinds and have won SMASH, Starfish Search, and GISH (2x). Cotopaxi is next 😉
Benton is also a Rogue Hunt judge.
Rogue Judges
Christine / Crake
Christine is a collector of tattoos who literally wears her multi-fandom on her sleeve. A former graphic designer with a degree in art history, she managed to fight her way back to artistic expression after becoming disabled and partially blind from a stroke. Dedicated to con life and an avid reader of SF/F and horror, she now gets that fix through podcasts and audiobooks. You can often find her listening to a Yankees baseball game while at her easel on her NJ deck, supervised by her beloved (and formerly feral) cat, Castiel.
Christine is also an accessibility reader / list reviewer for the hunt.
Jenn
Jenn is the co-founder of The Starfish Foundation in Guayaquil, Ecuador where she lived for 8 years. Now based in southern New Hampshire, Jenn continues to volunteer for Starfish as the Board President and works at another nonprofit serving families in Greater Boston — which is “enemy territory” since she is a big Yankees fan. Jenn also loves dogs (especially her dog Simba, who came to the U.S. with her from Ecuador), painting, hiking, and UConn basketball. Jenn believes that education is the way to stop the cycle of poverty, and that one by one, we can all make a difference!
Jenn is also the primary English – Spanish translator for the hunt.
Betsy
Betsy is the definition of a “crazy cat lady.” Her two cats are her babies. While not home with her cats in Bismarck, North Dakota, she works for a small, locally owned salon. She has a degree in anthropology and a passion for history. Her hobbies are sewing, cross stitch, and watching her favorite shows over and over again. She loves music and travel and combines them whenever she can to see concerts in faraway cities.
Betsy is also a list reviewer / editor for the Rogue Hunt.
Skiiz
Skiiz is a gamer, a poler, the occasional knitter, an ardent reader, and a hiker. Based in the Southern Riverina of NSW in Australia, Skiiz works at a University teaching Physics. When she’s not doing that she can be found swinging around a pole at the studio, curled up in a blanket with a good book and one of her cats, cursing loudly at a boss battle in a video game, or calibrating the telescopes at the local Observatory.
Rebecca
Rebecca is a born and raised Delawarean, with a degrees in chemistry and business, and a travel bug. When not in the lab or busy with her family, friends, and dog, she can be found reading, binging TV, building Legos, or hiking. She loves to learn (she has bought textbooks for fun) and her creative outlets include flower arranging, decorating cakes, and sewing.
Liz
Liz is a chemist and cat mom with a penchant for problem solving. In her work as an analytical chemist, she is always looking for the next difficult question to answer with a creative solution. At home, you’ll find her working on a jigsaw puzzle, or channeling her creativity into makeup artistry or jewelry making. All the while, she’s either singing to the music in her head or falling down a YouTube rabbit hole around her newest special interest. She is also passionate about STEM education and is involved with multiple organizations that support the Latinx community.
