OThot deploys a proprietary analytics process and leverages state-of-the-art data mining and analytics tools to develop and maintain managed analytics programs for its customers.

Also in 2014, Andy was appointed an Adjunct Professor of Entrepreneurship and Analytics and an Entrepreneur In Residence at Pitt Business. His primary responsibilities in these roles include developing and delivering curriculum at the intersection of analytics and entrepreneurship, mentoring students that are creating new ventures, fostering an entrepreneurial environment, and developing a concept for graduates to be leaders in the blossoming business analytics field.

One of Andy’s greatest passions is building teams that win but that also enable the individuals to reach their potential. Many of the people that Andy has worked with have gone on to C-level positions, such as presidents of companies and universities, and some have started their own companies. Leadership, innovation, vision, and ethics are the values he instills in his teams and these are the basic ideals of his actions and communications
