Early life and education

Andrisse grew up in Missouri. He was part of the Ferguson-Florissant School District. Andrisse has said that he made poor decisions as a young person, and he was first arrested at the age of 14. [1] By his early twenties he had been sentenced to ten years in maximum security penitentiary. [1] During his time in prison he was part of a drug rehabilitation program.[ citation needed]

Andrisse was an undergraduate student at Lindenwood University. [2] He remained at Lindenwood for graduate studies, where he worked toward an Master of Business Administration. [2] While there, he played NCAA Division III Football Championship. [3] He was accepted to a doctoral program at Saint Louis University, and completed his PhD in 2014. [2] After earning his doctorate he was appointed a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University.[ citation needed]
