Gillian Goerz: Hi. My name is Gillian Goerz. Gillian has a soft G like the word giraffe and you say Goerz as if it has a T, though you never spell it with one. Goerz is tough because in English it doesn't look like it sounds, or sound like it looks. Goerz rhymes with hertz. And if you didn't know, hertz is a unit of measurement that sometimes represents energy, and sometimes it's a measure of sound waves or musical tones. It also rhymes with Goerz. And Gillian rhymes with million. So when in doubt, think million hertz: Gillian Goerz.
