ANDREW (HE/HIM)
Andrew thrives on love of family, community and the outdoors. Whidbey has been home since 2016, when Andrew and Cade moved to the island from Seattle. They relocated together from Boston in 2013 after a cross-country road trip.
Andrew absolutely loves being a Dad to their kiddo, Eliot. His family is often out on the local trails biking, running, hiking, or playing. He served for nearly 3 years on the Ebey's Reserve Trust Board, and values the chance to help protect Coupeville and the surrounding prairie. The mountains in Washington hold quite an allure but he'll always have a connection to Mt. Washington, NH where he built his backcountry skiing skills.
Professionally Andrew is a software engineer who loves the never ending puzzle of computer science. Creatively, Andrew is a writer, musician, and photographer.
