Andy, a junior at St. George’s School, is overjoyed to serve as the Director of Conference for STRIVE 2026. His passion for case competitions arose in Grade 9, after scrambling to nearly finish a slideshow right before presenting—albeit arduously—with a team full of newly-made friends. Ever since, he has stuck around for both the opportunities these events provide, as well as the relationships they help form. As the Director of Conference, Andy looks forward to emphasizing the technology-based theme of STRIVE while ensuring a positive experience for attendees of all backgrounds and interests. Outside of working, Andy can be found battling the urge to order food at midnight, practicing the same measure of music endlessly, or trying his hardest not to nap in the afternoon. Andy looks forward to seeing all of you in February and will always be open to chatting with anyone during the conference!
