Philadelphia born jibber turned Utah powder junkie, Andrew made his mark on the global snowboard scene last season in Nike’s “The Chosen” contest. He and the “This Must Be the Place” crew claimed a second place finish in Austria. While there, Andrew was baptized into the Euro party scene, and everything that comes with it. From kicked down club doors to couches being used as public urinals; It was definitely a once in a lifetime trip. Back at his Utah home, he spends his time fly fishing (dreaming of the Brighton Anglers’ trophy catches), skating the local parks and studying communications and art at Westminster. Andrew’s part is the opener in Connor Brown’s “This Must be The Place”. Spoiler alert: it’s really good. However, just because he snowboards better than you, it doesn’t make him cocky. Andrew credits many people for propelling his riding career forward. Although, first and foremost are his parents. From them, he gained a love for the outdoors and a strong work ethic. That work ethic coupled with his skill on a snowboard is setting him up for a long and prosperous future in the snowboard industry.
