Andrew Pate

Vice President, Global Fulfillment

Andrew Pate is the Vice President of Operations and Global Fulfillment for Lulu.com, the premier international marketplace for new digital content on the Internet, with more than 300,000 recently published titles and more than 15,000 new creators from 80 different countries joining each week.

Prior to becoming VP of Operations for Lulu.com, Pate was with Lightning Source as the VP of Business Development for over five years and was the COO of Rutledge Hill Press for over three years. Pate has a BA in Economics from Vanderbilt, "Go Commodores!" and an MBA in Economics from Xavier University.

Born in Nashville, Pate was sure to leave his mark serving as the president for the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee and treasurer of the Dubose Conference Center. He has since spoken at over 50 industry events on the "Convergence of Technology and Intellectual Property," and is an avid believer and supporter of spreading the word about Lulu and how Lulu is "revolutionizing the game." A purveyor of many different instruments from the banjo to the guitar Pate likes to display his musical prowess with his love for Bluegrass music; and if you want to get hitched he is your man, as he professes to be a reliable match maker taking the credit of now five happily married couples.
