Andy was a frustrated actor and musician growing up – mainly frustrated by a lack of talent. He gave it up to study economics at University, embarked on a career as an economist and then worked in a series of telecoms companies in strategy and marketing roles. Andy now works for the market research company Kantar, responsible for their strategy in the analytics of large data sets.

Andy lives in the Barbican and works in the City. He masks his singing voice by singing regularly with 149 other men in the London Gay Men’s Chorus. His partner is Austrian – and so he often pretends to learn German, in order to have a decent conversation with his mother-in-law.
