Andrew is an Auckland-based actor and theatre maker.

Before pursuing a career in the arts, he traveled the world as a Contiki trip manager and continues to have a deep passion for travel. Now a proud resident of Karangahape Road, he is dedicated to creating theatre that reflects urban culture and the queer and Māori communities he is part of.

In 2024, Andrew was involved in the award-winning show Prowl at the Auckland Fringe Festival, which earned three accolades: Outstanding Movement, Tour Ready, and the Overall Auckland Fringe Award.
