About Author Andrew Botieri
After more than 35 years as a successful entrepreneur and business leader, Andrew Botieri has transformed his lifelong passion for storytelling into a second career as an acclaimed author and inspirational speaker.
Andrew’s journey as an author began after a life-changing medical crisis. In 2000, he was diagnosed with the rare autoimmune disease Scleroderma, which led to kidney failure and his brush with death experience. Defying the odds, he recovered after a 28-hour coma — an event that inspired his first book, “A Celebration of Life: A Story of Hope, A Miracle & The Power of Attitude.” The memoir shares his extraordinary story of overcoming adversity, resilience, and the importance of maintaining balance in life.
His newest novel, “The Magical Espresso Machine,” marks a creative new chapter. Inspired by his deep Italian roots and his home in Plymouth, Massachusetts, this intergenerational love story connects two families across time and place — from pre–World War I Italy to present-day Massachusetts — through a touch of magic and enduring love.
Beyond writing, Andrew continues to be a strong advocate for Scleroderma Awareness, volunteers for nonprofits, and occasionally performs as a songwriter and acoustic guitarist in local venues. His life and work embody his belief that every challenge can become an opportunity to inspire others. Learn more at andrewbotieri.com.
