Nicolas André is a writer, student, and professional model. Originally from the Laurentides region of Quebec, he has recently moved to Montreal. There, he occasionally visited his grandmother, who often used her Macaroni au Gratin as a Trojan horse for her stories of Haiti during the Duvalier-era. He has recently disappointed her by becoming vegan. He hopes one day to make her the mixed-race heroine of a refugee story in which he will have just a minor role. He currently studies Creative Writing and English Literature at Concordia University and acts as a Writer/Copy Editor at Collective Culture. You can watch him procrastinate here: @pitinik
