Andrew Gillsmith is a science fiction writer whose education in religious studies and passion for the cyberpunk genre has helped inform and mold his style of storytelling. Fittingly, his first job out of school was delivering mail for Jeff Bezos when he was still selling books via Listserv. Since then, he’s worked in a number of interesting roles, including head of customer experience for the Kentucky Derby, leader of a proposed hyperloop project in the United States, head of data analysis for a healthcare company, and SVP of sales for a digital marketing agency. He currently works in publisher development in the programmatic advertising space.
Andrew lives in St. Louis, Missouri with his wife Cheryl and their two young sons.
His new novel, Our Lady of the Artilects, is available for purchase on Amazon.
