Matt Meilner
Creative Director, Accenture Song

I had the pleasure of having Andrew on my team this past year, and he quickly gelled with the team and was a go-to designer for our account. His attention to detail and dedication to delivering top-notch work set a high standard for the entire team. What truly stands out about Andrew is his mastery of design systems and how he was able to connect the dots between the business nature of the work and how design could amplify the messaging . He has an exceptional ability to create and maintain cohesive, scalable systems that elevate both the user experience and the brand. Whether tackling a complex design challenge or refining the smallest detail, Andrew consistently approached every task with precision and creativity… I highly recommend Andrew to any organization seeking a skilled and passionate design leader who delivers results and inspires those around him.

Andrew and I crossed paths at Accenture where we worked on several projects together over the span of 4 years. During our time working together, Andrew demonstrated his natural talents as a visual creative. As someone that cares deeply about polish and quality, I never had to worry that whatever Andrew touched would not be at the highest standards of visual quality. Additionally, Andrew became an expert and advocate of systems thinking as he helped build the foundations of product design kits, a design systems offering for the Accenture's digital product capabilities. He was involved from researching industry trends and corporate brands, exploring creative directions, defining the visual language, all the way through deep execution with engineering partners. When it came to building relationships and trust, I observed Andrew invest a lot in developing strong partnerships with engineering. This allowed for strong collaboration between design and engineering, and ensuring that the quality of the digital products being built were the best experience delivered to users. Aside from Andrew's visual and digital product design expertise, there are inherent qualities that Andrew has that cannot be taught. He is a tenaciously hard worker, eager to support his colleagues, and just a delight to work with.

Design Leadership Associate Director, Accenture Song

I’ve worked with Andrew over 9 years and have been his direct lead across various projects during his time at Fjord/Accenture Song. Andrew is a standout designer who is able to marry his deep craft skills with pragmatism to consistently deliver high quality work. His understanding of service design and design research, combined with his expertise in visual and product design means he can drive work from strategy/ vision all the way through realization. Every project I have had the pleasure of working on with Andrew has become a showcase case study that sets the standards for other teams. In addition to consistently producing high quality work, he is great collaborator and an effective mentor to junior designers. Andrew is a designer you want on your team, working side by side with you through any challenge. I highly recommend him for senior designer and design lead positions.

I was fortunate to work with Andrew as he grew from a senior designer into a seasoned design and program leader. He was always the first to roll up his sleeves, learn new spaces and industries, and collaborate with other disciplines to make the best experience real. His design portfolio already speaks volumes, but his approach to getting things done and navigating the process is the secret sauce. If you want someone that’ll humbly run through walls to create the best experiences, he’s your guy.
