Andrew is a product strategist who currently spends most of his time focused

on mental health solutions. Andrew isn’t shy about his history with anxiety and

depression and talks openly about his past experiences to be a vocal advocate

for mental health. At the age of 33, Andrew was diagnosed with ADHD. It wasn’t something he had always suspected but rather Andrew stumbled into the realization. Since his

diagnosis, Andrew has used his ADHD to further advocate however he can -

even if that means in the boardroom.

 

Andrew is also a father of 3 boys and married to a wonderful woman who has

supported him throughout his career. She has been there through the highs and

lows. Andrew often leverages his own struggles to help connect with his Son as

Andrew’s Son tries to navigate his own battles with anxiety and potentially

faster than normal brain. At the end of the day, Andrew believes that if sharing his own story can help just one person then it’s totally worth it. Enjoy!
