Feet Banks – Editor, MLCM

Feet Banks is a writer, editor, and (shitty) filmmaker from the west coast of Canada who appreciates large open spaces, shit-talking around a campfire, horror movies, books, naps, people who try new things, and pumpkin pie. He has been chipping away at the underlying truths, greater goods, and seedy underbellies of life since the late 1990s and is still not entirely convinced Western Civilization isn’t on the verge of collapse—if it can happen to the Inca, it can happen to us… Act accordingly.

Susan’s lifelong love of the outdoors can be attributed to her childhood in Northern Ontario, where skiing during minus 38-degree winters and canoeing during black fly-infused summers gave her a hardy soul and a strong constitution.
After completing an MA in applied english at the University of Waterloo, a love of snowboarding lured her to Whistler, where she took a more fulfilling job as Chief Pizza Toppings Engineer at a local cafe. Her career path has since taken many turns, and whether she is wearing the hat of writer, editor, graphic designer or entrepreneur, Susan brings enthusiasm and well-earned years of experience to the table. Susan enjoys van camping, crossword puzzles, and sharp pencils.
