Professional Experience
After a long career in the Bay Area, including time at Electronic Arts, Apple, and Redfin, Andy started his first company, Approved, in the mortgage tech space while an Entrepreneur in Residence at the renowned VC firm, Social Capital. After raising a seed round and spending a few years building the company, the product, and the team, Approved parlayed a potential customer, Credit Karma, into a potential acquirer. He ran the Mortgage and New Business teams as a VP & General Manager at CK for four years, and now he’s back at company building with RetroRate. RetroRate operates in the assumable mortgage space and helps real estate professionals and new homebuyers take over lower interest rate mortgages instead of financing a brand new and expensive loan.
