Andre Creighton ’13 is a Co-Founder & Executive Officer at TurnSignl in Minneapolis, MN. He is excited to announce that alongside two other African American men from the Twin Cities (Mychal Frelix & Jazz Hampton), both Saint Thomas graduates, have co-founded a company called TurnSignl. Their mission is to protect driver’s civil rights, deescalate roadside interactions, and ensure all parties return home safely. TurnSignl is the first to provide drivers with tele-legal assistance in real-time with on-demand guidance from an attorney, including audio and video recording of the interaction. The app will be available in Apple and GooglePlay stores early in 2021 and is exclusive to Minnesota with plans to expand across the country throughout the year.
Since graduating from Gustavus in 2013, Andre has worked in the Accounting and Finance space for nearly 8 years with various firms and large companies (Baker Tilly, Cargill, Spire CU). In 2019, he graduated with an MBA from Augsburg University and began to dive deeper into the entrepreneurial arena. In January of 2020, Mychal Frelix (a Saint Thomas grad) and Andre launched a Non-Profit named Foreshadow. Foreshadow is a non-profit built to help bridge the achievement gap for youth in the Twin Cities by providing guidance toward career discovery.
