Shareca Coleman

Shareca (sha-ree-ka – she-her-hers) is the CEO of The Daily Fandom, which essentially means she has been keeping the ship afloat since 2016.

With a passion for dissecting media through a modernist lens, she has dedicated her academic journey to it, earning a BA in English and an MFA in Film Studies — and is now working toward a Ph.D.

Her taste in film speaks volumes, and you can catch a glimpse of it — if you can track her down on Letterboxd. 😉

Joanis prides herself on having a BA in English.

She is a lover of all things popular culture, but Tony Stark, Kimberly Hart, and Dr. Pepper hold a special place in her heart.

When she isn’t crying over content in media, you can catch her hanging out with family, and friends, or at work.
