Dhy has her own band called NEON BLK (formerly called Radclyffe Hall). One of her Radclyffe Hall songs, “Omg,” was featured on the TV series Good Trouble. Dhy plays bass and does a lot of sound design. She also hangs out with her two cats, Overton Wakefield Jones Edwardsberry and Astrid Ann Edwardsberry. If you visit her office, she will play you a song on her cat keyboard, which meows with each key stroke.
“I am excited to be here and to start my next big adventure as a business librarian,” says Dhy. “Emory is so cool. I feel like I can be myself here. I appreciate Emory for giving me this opportunity and I feel appreciated by this staff.”
