Andrew L. Fields

Andrew L. Fields is the founder and chief executive officer of DECA MEDIA, LLC. He leads the company’s strategy, operations and development of projects involving media, rights, information and long-term cultural work.

Raised by his grandparents in Missouri, Andrew served in the United States Army from 2014 to 2019. His public biography describes that service only at a level supported by official records and approved for disclosure.

After his military service, Andrew lived and worked in New York and California and began exploring Mexico as part of a broader interest in travel, culture and place. He has long been interested in how people interpret the same situation from different perspectives, and in how location, background, responsibility and experience shape what people notice, value and choose to preserve.

Andrew founded DECA to bring strategy, content, rights and continuity into one working structure. CIBOOK, a non-commercial cultural initiative organized by DECA MEDIA, is one of those projects. His role is to establish its direction and operating structure while participant contributions remain governed by the applicable agreements.
