Andrew Jones is one of four candidates vying for the job of Mayor for the City of St. Louis. Jones is currently serving as Vice President of marketing and business development for the Southwestern Electric Cooperative.

Jones, who lives in the Botanical Heights neighborhood in the city’s central corridor, went on to graduate from college and earn two graduate degrees, including an MBA from Washington University’s Olin School of Business. He has never held a position as an elected office before. Andy Ruzicka has a conversation with Jones to find out more about his background, his position on policies and his vision for St. Louis should he win the election.
