Hi, I'm Andrew. Nice to meet you.

The honest truth is that for most of my life, I didn’t think about parenting or kids very much at all. I was too busy chasing my dreams. After graduating from Northwestern, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in writing for TV and Film. After years of working my way up through the ranks I broke through and became a writer, mostly for kids TV shows on Nickelodeon.

And then I became a dad. And suddenly I thought about parenting and kids a lot. I was confused, overwhelmed and lacking in confidence, especially as the challenges of raising a baby gave way to the even more confusing challenges of raising a human.

Enrolling at the Jai Institute of Parenting was an eye opener for me. Now I was informed on brain development, attachment science, and regulation. Now I had tools to turn to where before I was baffled. Learning about the many benefits of play for children was particularly exciting, as making kids laugh is useful in both of my careers.

Now I want to share everything I’ve learned with you. I want to help you become the parent you aspire to be. I can’t wait to hear from you.
