Andy is the Founder and CEO of Do Good Points, a digital platform that’s working to bridge the gap between nonprofits and individuals seeking to make a difference in the world. Though he never imagined starting a business in the social impact space, starting Do Good Points felt like answering a calling to give back. An entrepreneur at heart, Andy started his first business at 14 painting address numbers on sidewalk curbs for homeowners across the Bay Area. Within the first two years, the business was operating in three cities, with 21 employees. Since then, he’s led multiple ventures including two separate retail food & beverage businesses, an international eco-manufacturing company, multiple e-commerce lines, and an international business development consultancy. Before starting Do Good Points, he worked at a global market research company, partnering with top blue-chip brands in travel, retail, and digital marketing industries on customer loyalty, affiliate marketing, market research, programmatic marketing, and monetization.
