In 2004 he exhibited in the prestigious international glass event -Vetri. Nel mondo. Oggi at Palazzo Franchetti, Venice. His first International exposure was at Talente, Munich, in 2002.
Andrew initially completed under-graduate training at the University of South Australia and Honors at the Australian National University in Canberra. He then went on to complete the design associate program at Jam Factory Contemporary Craft and Design in Adelaide. Currently Andrew is based in South Australia, where he continues to develop his glass practice.¹
