Autor

Terrence Ho was born in 1987 at Alachua General Hospital in Gainesville, FL, USA. After graduating with a degree in sculpture from Yale University, he spent a year and a half traveling around the world, funded in large part by playing guitar and singing on the streets. He then taught grade school art and music in Chicago, Bangkok (Thailand), Hsinchu (Taiwan), and Gainesville-most recently with a traveling high school in Botswana, Mexico, UAE, Greece, Malaysia, Türkiye, and Oman. Health problems due to a rare bone marrow failure condition brought Terrence back home to Gainesville, where he now spends much of his time drawing, reading, cooking, and climbing. He loves languages and multilingual puns. He lives with his wife Qianqian and their innumerable stuffed animals.
