Andy grew up right here in Omaha and where he attended Millard South High School.  He felt the tug of the Lord to go to Concordia University in Seward where he received a B.S. in Secondary Lutheran Education with Biology, Physical Education, and Coaching as concentrations.  During time in ministry, Andy served at Our Shepherd in Indianapolis, Indiana and Grace Lutheran in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.  He competed in high school and college track and cross country and continues to run today (although not quite as much)!  For almost 17 years, he has been married and has three children – Matthew, Faith, and Joy.  Hobbies include being active, gardening, and following sports of any kind.  Two main passions in life include loving his wife and children and loving my Lord!
