I'm andy. I'm a musician. My current passion is the creation of video-game-like installations as a method of creating meaningful human social interaction.
I started writing and recording music at 14. I went to Purdue University where I got a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science in 2010. I worked in a professional punk rock studio for two years at Sonic Iguana. I am now in my second year of a Master's Degree in Theatre Sound Design.
