Bucket List and Personal Challenges
Andy’s bucket list includes travel to Greece, Spain, and Italy. If he were stranded on a deserted island, he would want to have his family, matches, and bourbon (!) with him.
Fun and Food
The funniest incident at work for Andy was falling in a mud hole, a story that adds a touch of humor to his professional journey. His favorite snack is Oreos, and if he could travel anywhere right now, it would be Italy for the food.
Best Advice
The best piece of advice Andy has ever received came from his father, who told him to stand behind his word and follow through, emphasizing that "we only have our word and handshake in the world."
