Persons
The lead author of Gymglish's creative content since 2004, Andrew has very clearly lost sight of any sort of legitimate career path. A native of San Francisco, Andrew joined the Gymglish team in Paris as a freelancer, after a year of teaching English in South Korea. He has a degree in Language Arts and Creative Writing from the Johnston Center of Integrative Studies at the University of Redlands. His meteoric rise to the middle resulted from contributing voices, ideas, scripts and pedagogical content to Gymglish's language courses. In his spare time, Andrew enjoys reading, writing, cooking, travelling and wondering what might have been. He lives with a hound (Shelgor) and a socialist cat (Buster) in the 11th arrondissement of Paris. He remains cautiously optimistic that he will someday find meaning. Andrew is the main author of the Word of the Month, contributing words and ideas.
