His transition into the construction industry began in 2010, driven by his passion for creative problem-solving and the tangible outcomes construction offers. He managed landmark projects such as the Statue of Liberty Pier Reconstruction, the LaGuardia Airport Runway Extension, and the World Trade Center Transportation Hub. His collaborations with agencies like the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, the National Park System, and the Federal Highway Administration highlight his broad project experience. In the early stages of his career, Andre worked as a trader at a multibillion-dollar hedge fund from 2002 to 2010, where he gained a robust foundation in finance and attention to detail that remains integral to his work today. Andre holds a B.S. degree from Villanova University and a Construction Project Management Certificate from New York University. Actively engaged with the construction community, he is a member of the Coastal Code Enforcement Association of South Carolina (CCEA), the Building Officials Association of South Carolina (BOASC), and the Charleston Home Builders Association (CHBA). He also serves as an investment banker for CTH Advisors, focusing on sourcing and structuring deals within the Construction and Engineering sectors. In his spare time, Andre trains in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with his wife and their three children (9-year-old boy-girl twins and a 7-year-old daughter), an activity that reflects his disciplined and focused nature.
