Guo plays Lin Wang, Ruby Bell's (played by Harriet Herbig-Matten) best friend and a fellow student at the prestigious private school at the heart of the new streaming romance series.
The Chinese-German actress has become a staple of both the big and small screen in her home country over the last few years, appearing in hits like The Swarm, German Genius, and Hausen.
6 Facts to Get to Know Maxton Hall's Andrea Guo
Home, Family & Heritage
Andrea Guo (24 years old) was born to Chinese parents in Hollabrunn, Austria on February 2, 2000.
While the Maxton Hall star would spend much of her childhood in the Republic of Austria, she eventually moved to the States to further her career in acting.

What makes the five-foot-two-inch TV star a bit different? Instead of speaking languages like French, Danish, or Italian, she is well-versed in German, Chinese, Mandarin, and English.
