About Andy

Andy has a wide range of musical experiences, including conducting, choral performance, composing/arranging, and digital production.

From 2021-2024, Andy was the Music Director of UVA's rock a cappella group, The Flying V's; he arranged much of the group's music, conducted performances, and helped organize the group's musical activities. From 2023-2024, he studied conducting under his advisor, UVA's Director of Choral Music, Michael Slon. From 2024-2025, he studied composition with Professor Leah Reid as part of his DMP.

In addition to being a regular member of UVA's University Singers and Chamber Singers, some highlights of Andy's choral performances include: the Defiant Requiem, performed at the Strathmore Music Center in Bethesda, MD; Rachmaninoff's All Night Vigil, performed at Charlottesville's St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church; and the North American premier performance of Ēriks Ešenvalds' St. Luke's Passion.

Andy also has significant experience with music production. In 2023, he was the recording engineer and producer for The Flying V's single release, The V's Go Big Time. Since 2019, he has released four albums of original punk-rock/alternative music. Each album was written, recorded, produced, and released entirely independently. The most recent record, Lost (2025), is a testament to his growth as an artist and songwriter, as well as a technically skilled producer.
