ANDREW ALEXANDER KING    

MEET ANDREW


Andrew Alexander King is an accomplished African American explorer, climber, surfer, and freediver. Voted as one of the Top 20 Most Influential People in the Outdoor Industry, Andrew has set out to be the first African-American to climb the world's tallest peaks and volcanoes on each continent to speak out against racism, sexism, climate change, and economic barriers. He is a strong believer in developing sustainable relationships with non-profits and other humanitarian organizations along the journey with The Between Worlds Project Foundation which he founded and developed.


To date, Andrew has climbed more than 50 different mountains around the world from Kilimanjaro to the highest mountain in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, to the highest mountain in the Western Hemisphere, and surfed big waves in Mexico, Europe, and Hawaii. He is currently training in Nazare, Portugal- home of the 100-foot waves. Should he accomplish this feat, Andrew would be the first African American to surf Nazare + climb the Himalayas.


Andrew has been featured in Outside Magazine, Andscape, Men's Health, Muscle & Fitness, CNN, KTLA, Spectrum News, CBS, and more. He has featured in multiple campaigns including Backcountry, Subaru, and Cole Haanabout representing diversity in the outdoors, all of which contain a give-back component to support his mission of generating awareness to organizations focused on breaking the glass ceiling.

ANDREWS SIGNATURE EDITION PRO MEAL

Andrew King is an athlete who is always on the go. When we asked him what he looks for in a meal for all his high-output activities he challenged us to make a high-calorie, protein-packed vegetarian meal. Challenge accepted! As pretty much a full-time international traveler we wanted to make something that would reflect a meal that might touch on a few of the many flavors he has had the chance to experience around the world. What we created for Andrew is a Thai Style Coconut Cashew Curry with Chickpeas & Aromatic Rice. You do not have to be a vegetarian to enjoy a meal this tasty but we sure are glad we were able to make something that fits into the vegetarian adventure lifestyle.
