Born in Escalon, California, Andrew has been fascinated with the extraordinary
from an early age. After wanting to be a doctor, lawyer, astronaut,
baseball player, basketball player, architect, and anything else he
could imagine, he discovered something very important. All of these
aspirations throughout his childhood all stemmed from key places: Film
and television. E.R., A Few Good Men, Apollo 13, The Natural, Hoosiers,
etc...From there he took on drama at his middle school and went on to
act in high school, both located in Santa Clara, California.
He moved to Santa Clara in the middle of the ninth grade due to his parents' divorce and subsequent remarriage of his mother. It was a smooth adjustment and as stated before, his discovery of performance in Cabrillo Middle School helped him through a lot.
Having made many short films, many to be sent to film festivals, and having acquired a knack for writing, directing, editing, and acting, he is honing his craft at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in Hollywood. And in his words, hopefully he is not training to be a waiter for the rest of his life.
