Andrew hails from the beautiful Caribbean twin island State of Antigua and Barbuda. He is the oldest of three boys in his family.

He started college, taking up courses in Banking and Finance but later realize that that was not his calling. After completing that program, Andrew was awarded a Chinese Government Scholarship to further his studies abroad. He left everything behind and journeyed to China at the age of 20. This was his first international travel and bursting with excitement, Andrew was about to put his 100% in the life before him. Failure was never an option.To-date, marks 13 years since Andrew landed in the city of Beijing, China. He completed both his Bachelors and Masters Degree; of which he obtained full scholarship and graduated with honors.

Andrew is more than just his academics. Andrew dabbles in hair dressing, make up artistry, baking and fashion designing; and even now..CANDLE MAKING! As a self-taught tailor (still learning), he founded the brand Oshun Signature. Its a clothing accessories one-stop brand with handmade unique pieces crafted for the powerful sophisticated woman.

Andrew is a very humble and fun person to be around with. Trustworthy, loyal and kindhearted are some of the adjectives that best describes the fabric of his very being. Andrew is now working as a Human Resources Manager/Recruiter at one of the top international bilingual schools in Beijing. He sits in a role that is very fulfilling as he helps foreigners settle in their positions abroad, Beijing for that matter. Now that he speaks fluent Chinese and is embedded into the culture, he aims to help and advocate for foreigners whose shoes he once walked in.
