Sunday Morning Wake-up Call host Sean McCord talks to local entrepreneur Andrew Burrill about his fascinating life story. He grew up as an overweight and lonely child of a single mother in Louisa. Following a series of family tragedies, he lost over 150 pounds, moved to New York and L.A. to start a career as an actor, moved back to Virginia after his mother died, became a writer for the Huffington Post, hosted a TED Talk, graduated from UVA, and has now launched his own small business on Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall.
