Andy is an entrepreneur who has spent the last ten years focused on improving the way people work and live through the use of communications technology.
In 1996, he founded Intranet Communications, a company he raised $3 million for. As CEO of Intranet Communications, Andy created a MyYahoo-style Internet portal platform software product, and closed early stage sales to organizations that included Nissan North America, Pinkerton and Computer Associates International.
