Andy is educated and trained as an engineer. He grew up as a republican in the 60’s. Back then, the Democrats controlled Texas. Now the Republicans control all branches of Texas government. As the power has shifted from the Democrats to the Republicans, he left the ranks of the Republican Party. He believes that going to extremes in not the answer. So much so, that as an engineer he helped his coworkers unionize to counter the excesses of the caviler management he used to work for.
He spent six years in the US Navy with four years on an aircraft carrier. He has worked in the aerospace industry for over 25 years. He also manages a web site about women pilots from WWII.
