Founder and CEO of Liberty Spectrum, Andy has over 10 years of IT and cybersecurity experience, including leadership roles at both Timcast and PublicSquare. Now he's excited to bring that experience to the broader parallel economy market, streamlining IT and cybersecurity for small to medium-sized businesses with a technology stack designed from the ground up to help manage the risk of ideological cancellation. As Director of IT for PublicSquare, he transformed the company's IT infrastructure from a small scrappy startup through to its eventual IPO, while accommodating a 3X growth in company personnel, and fortifying system security against active and future attacks. As CTO of Timcast Media, he built the iconic Timcast IRL studio, while leading all technical operations, including the web and app development teams, IT, cybersecurity, and physical security systems - all amid constant cyberattacks from a range of highly motivated threat actors, and over a dozen attempted SWAT attacks. In his spare time Andy enjoys aggressive inline skating, and spending time with his wife @SourPatchLyds, and their new Sour Patch Baby.
Better known by her Twitter handle @SourPatchLyds, Lydia thrives in her role managing client and partner communications by leveraging her exceptional customer relationship skills, meticulous attention to detail, and commitment to building strong professional partnerships. Her capability in communications management (and cat herding) was most notably exemplified in her previous role as producer and guest coordinator for the Timcast IRL news livestream where for over 3 years she could be seen every weeknight from 8-11pm switching cameras and dishing out spicy hot-takes on the show. Lydia is a multitasking machine, balancing Liberty Spectrum with her role as a dedicated wife and mother to her new Sour Patch Baby.
"Lydia and Andy provided an absolutely amazing experience and helped us make our vision of sticking it to the Chinese Communist Party a reality. It was amazing to see our dream materialize and reach thousands of people. When technical issues came up, they were always available to troubleshoot and quickly get things resolved. On the digital frontlines of the global fight for freedom, they’re giving us the tools we need to win."
“Andy is doing Yeomen’s work over there, making sure that more and more people are going to be able to have the sorts of conversations that we need to have, and not get canceled over night for it.”
“The work that you guys are doing as a team is pretty incredible”
“That crazy tech genius!”
“He is the master behind all of the technical endeavors that we’ve done.”
