More About Andrew:

Andrew Victor Sendejo is a former American football safety. He played college football for the Rice Owls, and was signed by the Sacramento Mountain Lions of the United Football League (UFL) as a free agent in 2010. Sendejo was also a member of the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings, Cleveland Browns, and the Indianapolis Colts.

In the heart of the NFL, amidst roaring crowds and tough games, Andrew Sendejo and his partner at BrainTree Nutrition Scott Solomon had an awakening. The persistent head traumas weren't just their battle—it was a shared struggle among many.

Determined to rewrite this narrative, they birthed BrainTree Nutrition. Here, science meets dedication: neurologist-developed supplements with evidence-backed efficacy. Our pledge? Pure ingredients, no secrets, and a steadfast contribution to Alzheimer's research.

Andrew is also the founder of 4th and 1 Ventures.
