ABOUT
As a small child, Andrew won a fiddle contest in his hometown of Jackson, Mississippi, and his desire to perform was born. He spent much of his youth performing in orchestras, choirs, and children's plays, but it wasn’t until a production of Les Misérables during Andrew’s junior year of college that he was truly bitten by the theatre bug. After an injury forced him to quit the basketball team at his university (where he spent most of his time on the bench), he dove into the theatre world.
After graduating college with a B.S. in public relations, he started a career in higher education while completeing a M.S. in communication. During this time, he landed his first professional role of Lumière in Beauty and the Beast at the local regional theatre, New Stage Theatre in Jackson, Mississippi. Once he discovered he could get paid to perform, he set out to learn more about this "new" world of professional theatre. Years later, he has toured the U.S. and Asia with the national tour of Lincoln Center's My Fair Lady and the global tour of The Sound of Music, checked off many a dream role at regional theatres around the country, and made countless friends along the way. As a singer, Andrew frequently performs at pageants and cabarets, and has been featured at the Miss America Pageant.
Andrew is a vocal student of Dr. Nicholas Perna, and has studied acting at the Karl Bury studieo in NYC. When not on the stage, he can be found laughing with his family over a cup of coffee, playing sports with friends, and cheering on his beloved Chicago Cubs.
