Andy is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and storyteller dedicated to building ventures that challenge convention, elevate human potential, and create lasting impact.
As Managing Director of Solanus Capital Partners™, Andy leads a $5M early-stage venture fund backing U.S. pre-seed and seed founders with grit, tenacity, and deep domain expertise.
Andy’s sourcing advantage comes from years of embedded roles in the startup ecosystem — Founder Institute, Founders Network, 1871, mHUB, Polsky Center, P33, and MD Angels — allowing Andy to spend meaningful time with founders before investing.
Andy is also the Co-Founder & COO of Jolo.ai, a next-generation job search and hiring platform using anonymous profiles, behavioral science, and machine learning to deliver bias-free, meaningful matches between candidates and employers.
As Co-Founder & CEO of hubub, Andy is redefining business client entertainment through an AI-powered digital concierge that automates reservations, transportation, event tickets, and expense reporting — enabling businesses to focus on relationships instead of logistics.
Beyond venture and technology, Andy is the Founder of Solanus Films™, a mission-driven production company creating documentaries and feature films at the intersection of justice, faith, and science. Our work seeks to illuminate truth, give voice to the forgotten, and elevate the human experience.
Andy is also authoring Bonum Opus, a book exploring the philosophy of work — how daily labor shapes character, community, and human flourishing.
