He currently serves on the boards of two public companies, Sterling Infrastructure, a provider of e-infrastructure, building, and transportation solutions; and Greif, Inc., a global industrial packaging company.
James Cline, chairman of the board of directors, said, “The Board is pleased to welcome Andy as a director. He is a renowned business leader and we expect that his expertise will be immediately additive to our Board. With this appointment, the Board continues its ongoing refreshment effort, most recently including Chris Keffer’s appointment last year.”
Bryan Fairbanks, president and CEO of Trex Company, commented, “Andy’s many years of experience, deep knowledge of both the consumer and building products sectors and financial expertise will provide Trex with valuable insights and guidance as we advance our strategy and capitalize on the industry’s long-term growth opportunities.
