Andrew was born and raised in a musical family in Decatur, Illinois. He attended Southern Illinois University – Edwardsville, where he studied piano and tuba and earned a degree in music education in 2003. As a college student, Andrew had the opportunity to fill in for the music minister at Calvary Baptist Church of Edwardsville on many occasions.   

After graduating in 2003, Andrew moved to St. Charles to begin his teaching career as the choir and orchestra director at St. Charles West High School. A few months later, the Lord led Andrew to Bogey Hills when the church was looking for a music director and he was looking for a church home and a place to serve.
