Since 2014, Andrew has worked at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, where he currently serves as

Executive Director. He oversees all aspects of ministry operations, communications, business administration, staffing, and strategic initiatives. He brings a broad range of skillsets to nonprofit leadership and has helped guide the church through seasons of revitalization, growth, and strategic realignment. He is currently leading a $25 million capital campaign and campus revitalization project.

In addition to his work at the church, Andrew serves on staff with Coral Ridge Ministries, the national broadcast outreach founded by the church to bring the hope of the gospel to America through media. He oversees various projects and initiatives for the ministry and its DBA, the Center for Christian Statesmanship, based in Washington, D.C.
