Andy also served as art director at Hey, Frank Unlimited, & Publicis West, where he worked on creative campaigns for Chevrolet, Holland America Line, Sahale Snacks, and T-Mobile. As for the rest of his story – he was born and raised just outside Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN in the mighty Midwest where his early days were spent building forts out of anything he could find, creating anything his LEGO® supply could create, and exploring anything that needed exploring. Later in life he turned his focus to snowboarding, kayaking, hiking, biking, running, jumping, photographing, bass playing, golfing, fishing and many other things that end in “ing.” Now he is an art director who’s endlessly curious, hopelessly idealistic and continuously honing whatever skills he may have picked up along the way.
