About Andy

Andy helps guide individuals and families on holistic, value-aligned plans. He enjoys actively learning about the beliefs, values, and customs of different people, and has a rich multi-cultural background, with former stops including Bangkok, Beijing, London, and New York. Fluent in three languages, Andy excels at making clients feel understood and welcomed while helping tailor strategies in investment management. 

Andy’s career began in Bangkok, Thailand, with UOB Kay Hian, where he focused on asset management and equity analysis on the Thai stock market. He then moved to London to join Barclays Private Bank in private wealth management, working with international clients from the Middle East, East Asia, and foreign nationals living in the U.K. He later relocated to the U.S., where he attended business school prior to joining Focus Partners Wealth.

Outside of the office, Andy is energized by learning and helping others. During his undergrad schooling, Andy served as President of the Poker Society, one of the largest non-academic clubs on campus, where he helped bring together like-minded peers to explore the game’s psychology and mathematics. For fun, you’ll find Andy on a court playing pickleball, badminton, or tennis. He is also an aviation and public transit enthusiast who seeks out new aircraft types and train models when travelling. When visiting home, Andy loves exploring new Thai restaurants in the neighborhood.
