Andrew attended
Robert Louis Stevenson High School in Pebble Beach, California,
where he participated in football, baseball, basketball,
soccer and track. He went to college at the University of
San Diego, and played free safety on the football team,
until a knee injury ended his playing days.
Andrew graduated

Administration in 1998. After graduating college, Andrew
secured a position as a trading assistant with brokerage
firm Robertson Stephens in San Francisco. For two years,
he managed a variety of stock transactions for "high

was forced to substantially downsize after the tech sector
cooled, Andrew was canned. So, he went to work for his family's
winery and join the sales team. Andrew is currently a Sales
Manager at the winery.
