About Andrew
My path in AI and product has taken me through roles at OpenAI, Spotify, and Coinbase. Along the way, I’ve guided more than 100 people into competitive tech careers. I understand the challenges of breaking in, standing out, and advancing, because I’ve lived them myself. My coaching is practical, direct, and focused on outcomes. If you’re ready to move forward in AI or tech, I’ll help you build the clarity, strategy, and momentum to get there.
Why do I coach?
Because nothing came easy. I’ve been overlooked, knocked down, and forced to find my own way forward. Every step I’ve taken in my career came through persistence and hard lessons. I coach to share what I’ve learned with those who are willing to put in the work. For people who are ready to take their next step in AI or tech, I provide guidance, structure, and accountability that shortens the path and makes success possible.
