We also honor the legacy of Steve Mariotti for his transformative work in youth entrepreneurship education.

Andrew's career as an attorney and entrepreneur is nothing short of inspiring. His story is one of determination, from meeting his wife Judy in law school to the challenges of starting his own solo practice. Andrew's empathy-driven approach to law, where he invests significant time in understanding his clients' ecosystems, sets him apart in the legal landscape. We explore his passion for writing on subjects like governance and strategy, and how these pursuits compliment his legal practice, offering invaluable insights into business development and client relationships.
