5 Questions For Andy:
|
1. Where can we find you when you're not working? |
At home, if I can help it. Otherwise, I enjoy attending, and participating in local, live theater, visiting family in Arizona and catching up with my cartoon heroes at Disney World. |
|
2. If you weren't doing what you do today, what other job would you have? |
I'd love to be a performer of some sort. I love interacting with a live audience. Or… anything The Mouse would care to pay me to do. |
|
3. Would you rather ride a bike, ride a horse, or drive a car? Why? |
Call me unimaginative, but I'd go with the car. A lot of my traveling is done to and from work, and I don't see the bike or horse performing incredibly well on a January morning down Fall Creek. |
|
4. What would you do if you won the lottery? |
That all depends on who is reading this. If it's management, I would continue all of my current responsibilities and invest all of the winnings in Grow Indiana Media Ventures. Otherwise, it's hard to pinpoint. I tend to think experiences are worth more than things, so I would probably strike a balance between work, travel and my hobbies. |
|
5. What three items would you take with you on a deserted island? |
A fully-staffed cruise ship, a ticket for that cruise ship and a map to the closest port to Indianapolis. |
