I can only be who I am. No more. No less.
But that doesn't stop me from striving to exceed those limits.

Family

Childhood home: A small Wizarding village outside of London with her parents.
Blood status: Half-blood.
Parents: David (muggleborn) and Caitlin (pureblood)
Sibling(s): Older sister, Bianca whom she rarely speaks with anymore.
History: Mandy grew up with her parents and her sister Bianca in a small Wizarding village. Her sister was four years older than her and succeeded at everything she tried which made Mandy want to do the same. She never quite felt like she was surpassing her sister's shadow and when Bianca left Hogwarts, they never spoke again as Mandy tried to grow as her own person instead of a copy of her sister.

Winters were spent at Hogwarts where she preferred her solitude. Summers were spent back at home where she usually stayed in her room reading.

After being approached by Tracey Davis, Mandy was coaxed into deciding upon one act of rebellion which later turned into three or four acts. Mandy quickly pushed her out of her life, fearing what she had become. It was when she realized she was a lesbian.

She dated Zacharias Smith briefly to prove she still liked guys, and although correct, he wasn't the right guy. She dated a few other guys before admitting she couldn't get Tracey or her rebellion out of her mind.

Her family doesn't know much about her life since leaving Hogwarts and she likes it that way. As much as she loves them, she always felt like they valued Bianca more. She only returns home for her parents' birthdays and Christmas.
