User:Rhys Anderson

Rhys Anderson is a pseudonym I use, since he is the protagonist in a short story series I write as a hobby. My actual name is Andrew C. Taylor. Originally born in Houston, Texas on May 13, 1990, I later moved to Stafford, Virginia for reasons concerning my parents' livelihood. I have been in public education in Texas and Virginia, though I was homeschooled for the seventh and eighth grades.

I have traveled extensively with my parents and without, to the following countries:


 * The United States of America (various states)
 * Canada (Banf and Vancouver)
 * Mexico (Cozumel and Calica)
 * The United Kingdom (London, Leeds, Blackpool, The Lake District, and Scotland)
 * France (Paris and Ferney-Voltaire)
 * Switzerland (Geneva and Grindlewald)
 * Italy (Rome, Piza, Florence, Monteporzio Catone, Genova, Frascati, Moreno)
 * Russia (Moscow, Vladimir, Suzdal)
 * New Zealand (Auckland and Rotarua)
 * Australia (Sydney)

I am currently pursuing a rigorous course of science and mathematics studies at | Brooke Point High School in Stafford, in preparation for the United States Naval Academy. I practice Tae Kwon Do, the Korean Martial Art, and currently hold a Red/Black belt (1st Gup). I serve as Vice President of the Brooke Point Science Club and an alumnus of the People To People Student Ambassador Program.

My interests include Naval History, Technology (My parents have a long affiliation with NASA and I have recieved an unusual amount of exposure to that organization and space technology in general), Science, Automobiles, Sailing, and the Military in general.

I also am involved with writing as a hobby, since my grandparents are authors and I assist with the editing of their books and some of the scientific and military background, especially on the Dragon's Game and Guardian's Universe series. My own works remain unpublished for now, but that may not always be so.
