Andy McDowell is an engineer by trade and a creative by nature. He is the founder of the entrepreneurial and small business coaching and consulting firm, Generate Your Value, co-host of The Generate Your Value Podcast, and an Executive Contributor for Brainz Magazine.
Andy spent 22 years with the Boeing Company, where he always felt more like a life coach than a boss. In 2002, he began his journey into entrepreneurship within a corporation when he was asked to develop an Airspace Design Consulting business from scratch that would serve the global government market.
Andy has a Bachelor’s Degree from Georgia Tech in Electrical Engineering and a Master’s Degree in Computer Information Systems from Georgia State. Naturally, his aviation work took him around the world and enabled him to work on high-profile projects - such as preparing the Beijing and Sochi Airports for their respective Olympic Games.
Andy would love to have a conversation with you about how he might be able to use his strategic skills developed from his years with the Boeing Company to Generate Your Value in your personal and professional life. He has a keen sense for applying business concepts into life coaching, and life coaching concepts into business.
Zach Levy is a Georgia native, born and raised. Growing up as an athlete, he built the foundations of work ethic, team building, and leadership. Through elementary, middle and high school, he was a wrestler, yet when college came around, he was recruited to the cheer squad, where he truly learned about lifting up others. After college Zach went on to manage one of the largest health clubs in Georgia, but quickly found that the corporate fitness sales life was not what he thought it would be. He then moved on to be a district manager for good ole' Waffle House. As anyone in restaurant management knows, it was not all rainbows and butterflies. Experiencing rapid burnout, and not feeling fulfilled, Zach started searching for other avenues, and found a passion for helping others in the financial field. He currently is a financial advisor and broker, with a goal of growing business to all 50 states in the U.S. His mission is to break the status quo of the financial services industry, and help people truly understand how to win the money game.
