Andrew informs the audience that 'fundraising" is about story-telling, which means finding ways to connect people to what they like and do to what you do. His organization supports "giving for a place of abundance and not from a space of scarcity".  Developing relationships with intention is critical skill set values when it comes to fund-raising. Education can open us up in ways that we otherwise would not imagine. His background helped him pivot nicely into becoming president of Petrus Development.
