Andrew Epperson, Chief Marketing Officer

About Andrew Epperson

I am a passionate problem solver at heart and loves to build. Growing up on a farm in rural Kentucky, I learned the value of hard work, commitment, and persistence at an early age. At 17, I ventured to Evansville, Indiana to become an engineer, but became inspired by the Internet and technology. So… I changed my major and spent a semester studying in England. Channeling this new inspiration, I earned my BS in Mass Communications from the University of Evansville.

So instead of building bridges, buildings, or machines, I build things online. I've proudly pursued the following roles as an inbound marketer:

  • A successful independent Internet and marketing consultant
  • Marketing Director for a laboratory information management software company
  • Lead web developer & Search Engine Optimization specialist
  • Partner at a leading technology service provider

Outside of work, I am a bit of a sports fan (nut). I've watched soccer at Anfield (Liverpool, England) and attended a Final Four. True to my Kentucky lineage, I'm a "little" bit over the top about University of Kentucky basketball, humbly at Cincinnati Bengals fan, and at 6’8”, a tall supported of USA soccer.

I am happy to share my support for the Bengals with my wife and proudly encourage my daughter to support UK basketball. Go Big Blue!

I am a self-taught juggler, will eat anything at least once, afraid of heights, and pro Oxford comma.
