For more than 35 years, Andrew has championed the value of historic places and their role in sustaining the cultural vitality of cities and neighborhoods. He has led the transformation of some of the Bay Area’s most notable landmarks, adapting them for new uses while preserving their distinct character and history. His work includes the Ferry Building, the Presidio Landmark, the Presidio Officers’ Club, and the San Francisco Mission Armory.
Outside of project work, Andrew is deeply engaged in the civic and professional organizations shaping preservation, renewal and waterfront development across the Bay Area. He serves on the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission Design Review Board and as a Trustee of the California Preservation Foundation. He has also held leadership roles with the San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission, DOCOMOMO, and the Golden Gate Chapter of Lambda Alpha International, and remains active with San Francisco Architectural Heritage, ULI, and SPUR.
A frequent speaker at conferences and workshops, Andrew is eager to share his knowledge and experience with others. He studied architecture at Columbia College in New York and earned his Master of Architecture from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation.
