Actor/Writer/Producer
After reenacting scenes from "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" In the backyard of his home on Long Island, NY while his parents watched concerned from the kitchen window, Andy attended Yale University where he studied theater and received his BA in May of 2009. While attending college, he performed regularly onstage in regional productions, including "Assassins" (Sam Byck), "The Lion in Winter" (Richard), and "Burn This" (Larry). Upon graduation, he moved to NYC to pursue his career and continued with work onstage including productions of "Dog Sees God" (Red Door Theater Company) and the FringeNYC premiere of the original play "Six Seconds in Charlack," which NYTheater.com called "one of the top 5 best Fringe shows of 2009." <div><br></div><div>After deciding that New York was entirely too cold during the wintertime, Andy threw his car on a flatbed truck and flew out to Los Angeles, where the sun indeed does shine for all seasons. Since moving westward, Andy has performed on "All My Children," "Days Of Our Lives," and the Animal Planet series "Lost Tapes." He has also worked for several big name commercial directors, including Joseph Kahn and Peter Darley Miller. But despite his film work, Andy has never left the stage. In September 2010, he performed in a production of "Waiting for Godot" as Vladimir at the Stella Adler Theater, where Associated Content called Andy "a break out performer... a new name to ass to the up and coming performers that will keep Stella Adler in business for some time to come."</div><div><br></div><div>Since moving to LA, Andy has also become heavily involved in the improv comedy scene. After studying at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater and the Improv Olympic in Hollywood, Andy formed the team "Shirts on Shirts," which can be seen performing regularly at the indie improv spaces around town.
