Hi, I’m Andy.

I’m an artist, producer, and creative leader. A few years back I left the safety of a “day job,” and started contracting live performances and zany think-tank ideas as a way to make my living. Turns out people liked my performances, leadership and other creative stuff! Today, I use my leadership and ideas to help navigate a larger multigenerational church through a changing landscape. I’m most excited about creativity when it intersects and affects people.

Each week I post a thought, drawing, video or song that deals with the stuff I care about.

Check out my homepage, my music page

Send me an email - I always write back.

After reloading software for the last 4 hours, I can finally start putting down a rough version of a new song for this coming Easter. I had to reload software after my hard drive decided to stop working. It has been a season of “early adoption” in the tech world that has slowed down productivity rather than accelerating it. However, I’ve enjoyed the “analog” space I’ve experienced since the hard drive crash. Its been refreshing hanging out with acoustic instruments, pencil and paper (instead of giant computer screens, LED’s, and soft-instruments). I am busy putting together a draft of a song focused on a little explored doctrine of faith called, “adoption.” The apostle Paul talks of the idea of Christian’s being “Adopted” by God. I hope to craft something that sounds familiar yet fresh and compelling.
