Long-time Virginia convention icon and full-time purveyor of chaos, Sean Heare is back at RavenCon with his trivia game Alien Peril and his award-winning wandering room party. Armed with a rolling cooler of Lou Ann’s infamous Jell-O shots and other mysteries best left undisclosed, Sean brings the perfect mix of humor, intellect, and an uncanny ability to make deadpan sarcasm look effortless.
By day, Sean swaps his party hat for a serious one: he’s got a Juris Doctor from American University and graduate chops in Counterintelligence, Cybersecurity, and Emerging Technology. As the Information Director for National Security Counselors—a nonprofit dedicated to prying open the vaults of secrecy—Sean’s technical advice helps their attorneys keep the national security world on edge.
Formerly a casual conspiracy theory aficionado, Sean now dedicates himself to combating misinformation, one implausible rabbit hole at a time. Want to chat about the eschaton, singularities, or whether we’re all just NPCs in someone’s simulation? Sean’s your guy.
If Sean has a new book it will be out in December 2025.
