“Andrew Yang is an original. No. He is not Andrew Yang, the 2020 US Democratic Candidate but rather, an engaging, thought-provoking business professional that truly paints outside the lines. His scientific approach to marketing puts him in a very rare class of marketers – with a drive and passion to seek truth in a paradigm filled with an infinite spectrum of gray.
I have had the privilege to watch Andrew re-invigorate and re-imagine his contributions to work over the last 2+ years and it has been incredibly impressive! And his ability to go from developing and articulating complex concepts and theories in one breath to rhyming off spoken word in another is truly something that has to be witnessed. His passion for his craft raises the energy level of every engagement and he is setting his own course of significant contributions in the way that is truly his own.”

“Andrew's enthusiasm and excitement have been an inspiration since the day I met him. He’s the type of guy that cannot help himself to explore ideas that improve impact and efficiency in everything he does or is involved in, professionally, personally, or otherwise. His energy is tremendously effective, and unstoppably contagious as I’ve witnessed firsthand across multiple diverse teams. Growth and amelioration are the definitions of this guy’s mindset and I’m genuinely lucky to have him on deck to discuss concepts, tackle a difficult campaign, or just see things from an angle that fosters progress. That, and he’s taught my son a killer moonwalk that will undoubtedly do him well in high school 😉”

“Intellect, passion, and courage are three words that come to mind when I think of Andrew.
Over the years, I was delighted to have had some deep and passionate discussions on marketing in the 21st century, and managing the all-important customer relationship. His thinking was sophisticated and innovative: in particular, Andrew really gets the vision of what computing can do for human-human and human-machine relationships. He doesn’t simply bandy words like “Artificial Intelligence;” he actually understands the possibilities and limitations of AI. And that was just one of many intellectually engaging discussions I have had with him.
In him, I see a future generation of leaders and innovators who are brilliant as they are humane and honest. I see the courage to tackle life’s biggest questions. And I see him becoming a beacon of hope to all who inspire and are inspired by him.”

“Andrew brought our team to a new level. We needed the expertise he has to elevate our connections to people through communications. What we got was much more. Andrew immediately connected with us individually, and as a team, by taking the team to truly understand our organizational goals and what we each bring to the work we do. How refreshing it was to have his guidance to discuss the ‘not urgent’ but important vision we have and the drivers and barriers we grapple with before mapping out solutions for our challenges, with us. As a non-profit charity, it is always challenging to decide where to invest our resources. He has a way of keeping the work about the people we are and people we impact that it doesn't feel like work. Our experience with Andrew has been not only a great investment but a game changer for our work and our team.”

“It is way too often that we see individuals who lose themselves within their professional life, compromising their passions or perhaps even their beliefs in order to move ahead. Fortunately, Andrew is one of the most authentic people I had the pleasure of meeting early in both my studies and my professional career. As a mentor and a friend, I've only seen him lead with honesty and integrity to both himself as well as his work. He's a badass and multi-faceted human that puts 110% into anything he does - whether it's marketing, entrepreneurship, dance or whatever else he decides to pursue in the future. Cha gheill to a wonderful Queen's alum whom I will always be cheering on!”
