Greg Coomer - Founder, Designer Greg has been a designer in the games and entertainment industry for 30 years. At Astro Lab you might find him working on things as varied as contracts, live audio equipment, or the typography on a screen-printed t-shirt.
Greg is told he is an Aquarius. His favorite constellation is the Pleiades cluster. He rejects the notion that the Pleiades is actually just part of Taurus, and insists that it be recognized as its own standalone constellation. He is also Team Pluto.
Christopher DeLair - resident composer Chris was raised by wolves, and then by his sisters, and then by the stars. Now it's up to all of us to raise him the rest of the way, which means he's back to wolves.
He's a triple-threat: he can sing, he can order thai food, and he can light up a room with his smile. Also he can write. Beautiful music, lyrics, and stories about lost children who want sweet vengeance or sweet dessert.
Chris is an accomplished member of the Seattle theatre community, has worked on many shows across the country...
His drag name is Crystal Air. Chris did not write this bio.
