Andy is a native of Anderson, IN. After living through several tragedies, he committed himself to serving the most vulnerable. His dissatisfaction with traditional paths led him to begin to explore joining lives with the most vulnerable rather than "serving" them. Ultimately, after academic research and much experimentation, this led to the creation of REMERGE, a community building and activation organization centered around a robust theology of reconciliation, where he currently serves as the Executive Director.
Andy has a B.A. from Anderson University and an M.Div. from Anderson School of Theology in Indiana. He earned his Ph.D. in Moral and Practical Theology (Theological Ethics) from King's College, University of Aberdeen in Scotland. Andy is a founding member of TraffickLight - an international coalition united in combatting sex trafficking. He has over 20 years of ministry experience.
Andy is married to Amy and they have three daughters and one son.
