After graduation, André landed a position at PepsiCo where he honed his skills and knowledge in sales and operations. He quickly climbed the ranks and eventually moved to Asbury Park to run a satellite warehouse. His dedication and commitment to his work did not go unnoticed, and he was admitted into the Executive MBA program at Texas A&M Commerce.
Shortly after moving to New Jersey André was recruited to the travel industry where he spent several years working for Avis Budget Group. His hard work and dedication led him to rise to the position of Vice President of North America managing a $500M portfolio and a 75 person sales team, a testament to his leadership and management skills.
As the world was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic and priorities shifted, André decided to return to his hometown and pursue his passion for the family real estate business. He has since become an active member of multiple local organizations and sits on the board for the Saranac River Trail.
In his free time, André enjoys golfing, surfing, skiing, and learning to kite surf. He has been married for ten years and has two beloved boxers that are always by his side.
