Andy and Janie have been dancing together for ten years. They compete in Amateur American Smooth, Amateur American Rhythm, and Amateur 9-Dance at the Championship level. They are three-time National 9-Dance champions and as of the 2002 Putting On the Ritz demonstration (March, 2002), they were second in the nation in American Rhythm and 9-Dance.

Local ballroom dance fans saw them compete in the USABDA National Championships in Minneapolis in August, 2002. They retained their second place ranking in 9-Dance and American Rhythm and finished fourth in American Smooth.
