Andy was raised in a military family as the youngest of three boys. After his parents divorced when he was seven, he had to discover most of his life on his own since he had very little guidance, he faced wild, challenging moments that shaped his strength and resilience. In his spiritual journey he walked through different phases of life. He grew up as Lutheran and Baptist roots, eventually leading him to become a devoted Presbyterian.
