Andrisse has said that he made poor decisions as a young person, and he was first arrested at the age of 14.[1] By his early twenties he had been sentenced to ten years in maximum security penitentiary.[1] During his time in prison he was part of a drug rehabilitation program.[citation needed]
Andrisse was an undergraduate student at Lindenwood University.[2] He remained at Lindenwood for graduate studies, where he worked toward an Master of Business Administration.[2] While there, he played NCAA Division III Football Championship.[3] He was accepted to a doctoral program at Saint Louis University, and completed his PhD in 2014.[2] After earning his doctorate he was appointed a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University.[citation needed]

In 2017, Andrisse was named a Leading with Conviction Fellow by JustLeadershipUSA.[5] In this capacity, he works to reduce the prison population by 50% by 2030.[5] Andrisse's first book, From Prison Cells to PhD: It is Never Too Late to Do Good, was published by Simon & Schuster in 2021.[3] He established a nonprofit program to provide mentoring to current and former incarcerated people so that they can start building their careers after leaving prison.[1][5][6]
