Born to Vietnamese refugee parents in Toronto, Canada, Andy turned to exercise in high school as a way to manage his ADHD \u2013 but as he spent more time in the gym, he noticed bored exercisers glued to their phones who were just going through the motions of a workout.

Aviron launched their connected rowing machine to the consumer market in 2020 and has seen remarkable growth for a seed-stage company, surpassing 2020 revenue in the first quarter of 2021. Aviron is backed by high-profile angels like Arjun Sethi as well as SamsungNext and Formic Ventures, a fund created by Oculus co-founder, Michael Antonov.
