Andrew comes from a family of skilled artisans. His parents own the Ocean Grove Artisans advertising agency – so he has, in essence, grown up in the business. Andrew is an accomplished illustrator and all of his design work stems from that foundation. Andrew holds a B.S. in Graphic Design/New Media Design from Roberts Wesleyan College as well as an MFA in Graphic Design from New Jersey City University. He has won 30 national and international graphic design awards and honors. Recently, Andrew was accepted into the International Academy of Visual Arts – an invitation only, membership-based organization of leading professionals from various disciplines of the visual arts dedicated to embracing progress and the evolving nature of traditional and interactive media.

He presently owns a custom graphic and website design firm which specializes in brand identity. In addition to working full-time in his business as a graphic designer and developing his photographic eye on the side, Gioulis is also involved in several ministries and non-profit organizations.
