About the Coach

Andy Heffner served as a New York City prosecutor for over twenty years and was  Chief of the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office Official Corruption  Unit. He then spent three years as an Assistant New York State Attorney  General investigating matters pertaining to public integrity and  corporate ethics.

After  much reflection, in 2010 Andy concluded that his core interests were in  people, their needs, their desires and their goals. While the hundreds  of cases he handled as an attorney involved many aspects of the human  condition, Andy decided to shift his focus from the institutional agenda  of his role with the government, and instead to focus all of his energy  and resources on helping individuals realize their personal and  professional goals.

Andy  is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) and received his  training and certification from the Coaches Training Institute. He has a  B.A. in Psychology and a law degree, and has spent years studying human  relationships, motivations and interactions among people from all walks  of life. Andy brings to coaching both compassion and a unique  perspective which empowers individuals and organizations to communicate,  maximize their potential, and reach goals without compromising personal  integrity.

Andy is married and has two children. He is an avid hiker and loves the outdoors.
