Meet the Team
Editor-in-Chief
Bridget Marshall
is an editor, writer, and English teacher who grew up between the USA and Chile. One consequence of hopping between hemispheres is that she has now lived 12 more summers than she has winters. She loves Jesus and is fond of good stories, yerba mate, and adventures in nature.
Editor
Rebekah Fruin
is an ATCK who spent portions of her life in Russia, Cambodia, and the USA. She is grateful to be serving as a missionary to Ukraine. One of the most important things she has learned is that God is not held back by any cultural, language, or personality barriers — therefore, by His strength and wisdom, she can also be a light for Him no matter where He calls her. She wouldn’t trade being a TCK for the world!

Lisa Elis
is TCKs for Christ’s graphic designer and resident avocado. She’s half European, half Asian, and currently lives in Canada. Enthusiastic about all literary and artistic things, she spends her time blogging, editing, drawing, and expanding her creative horizons. See her work on lisellie.carrd.co.
