About Me

His leadership demonstrates strategic clarity, deep functional mastery, and a rare ability to translate vision into scalable, measurable business outcomes. He has proven himself a trusted design leader whose influence extends beyond project delivery to shaping BCG’s design culture, systems, and standards firm-wide. He builds bridges, not just designs, and turns ambiguity into action with a calm, strategic hand.

Andy is a functional expert and thought leader in design, offering visionary yet pragmatic design direction that aligns with broader business objectives… Under Andy’s design guidance, Deckster became an award-winning product [and] achieved broad adoption, showcasing how his user-centric approach drives tangible impact across the firm.

One of Andy’s key strengths is his ability to ask thoughtful, clarifying questions that challenge ambiguity and surface important implications… His consistent consideration of downstream impact was valuable..., where anticipating reactions and adoption challenges is key.

Andy has very strong active listening skills, which he employs to develop a deep understanding of business/user needs before moving into solutioning. He asks questions that help clarify and sharpen his own and others’ understanding... These strengths have enabled him to help define great solutions, sometimes very different (and better!) than early hypotheses.

Andy consistently brought thoughtful perspectives and valuable insights that helped us iterate designs and concepts much faster… These improvements aligned well with leadership, reflected in the next quad as ESAT improved, and his ability to link design decisions to business outcomes made him a very effective collaborator.

Andy demonstrates strong expertise in UX across the portfolio and has a good balance of design and technical knowledge. I also appreciate that Andy pushes for design consistency across the portfolio, so that users who interact with more than one application have a grounding set of principles in how things work. This also benefits front-end developers, as they have clear standards and better opportunities to share and create reuse.
