Andy Macias
Branding & Swagging Consultant
Whether inventing products, building brands, or supporting rare disease communities, Andy is dedicated to finding solutions and making a meaningful impact.
Andy is a driven innovator who transformed a rainy-day tailgating hassle into Gutterpy Tents & Promo. Frustrated by pop-up tents that failed in bad weather, Andy engineered a unique tent with a patented built-in gutter system, keeping outdoor events dry and comfortable. What began as a simple solution quickly grew into a full-service shop offering branded gear for teams, businesses, and organizations, from apparel to custom bobbleheads. Gutterpy Tents & Promo’s success led to its acquisition by Liquid Screen Design in 2025.
Before his entrepreneurial journey, Andy served 23 years as a Naval Flight Officer, traveling the globe and honing his leadership and problem-solving skills. Inspired by his family's experience with bile duct cancer, Andy also founded CholangioConnect—a peer support network for those affected by cholangiocarcinoma—and Drive Away Cholangio, an initiative raising funds for research and awareness.
