As grants coordinator, Andrew wrote proposals and reports for external funders and foundations. He also managed the allocation and spending of project budgets for different grant-funded initiatives. When he is not managing grants, he developed and implemented partnerships with diverse organizations around San Diego, increased KPBS’ social media engagement through the @KPBS twitter account, and attended the numerous KPBS engagement events, such as One Book One San Diego and Community Heroes. Prior to joining the Community Development and Engagement Department in 2016, Andrew was a part-time assistant in the Development Department, where he assisted in the cultivation of the KPBS Producers Club. He graduated from San Diego State University in 2015, with a bachelor’s degree in business administration with an emphasis in management. Andrew is from the Bay Area and a die-hard San Francisco Giants fan. He enjoys spending time outdoors and wearing Hawaiian shirts.
