About

Andrew started his transportation technology career at 19 while attending Monmouth University where he played Division 1 baseball when he was given an opportunity to grow TaxiPass, a mobile payments startup. Between 2007 and 2012 he successfully targeted and on-boarded more than 30,000 licensed for-hire drivers in 35 US markets. After the launch of Uber and Lyft in the US for hire transportation sector, Andrew led an exit a bike sharing company, P3GM and a dual acquisition of two for hire tech transportation platforms in Las Vegas, NV(Triad Transportation Technologies and IonFleets) into a newly formed corp, Kaptyn. Kaptyn has created the only universal regulated transportation platform operating in critical mass of a top 10 US city. Kaptyn is primed to partner or exit with a leading OEM or autonomous firm.
