Featuring: Andy Funk - President/Owner Monsters of Hip Hop

Andy Funk, Director and Executive Producer

Andy graduated from Towson State University in 1996 with a double major in Mass Communications and Communication Studies. He worked in a variety of areas from freight logistics and non-profit development to baseball tour guide and major event planning. In 2002, he left his full-time job to run the family business, a dance studio in Maryland that he and his wife started three years earlier. The entrepreneurial bug would not allow him to stop there and with the help of his wife and sister-in-law, they created Monsters of HipHop in 2003.

Monsters of Hip Hop (Est. 2003)

The mission is to bring hip hop dancers together with the industry's top dance professionals in a fun and challenging environment that fosters self-fulfillment and career development.

Monsters of HipHop was started by Andy and Becky Funk along with Becky's sister, Angie. Collectively, the three developed the unique concept for Monsters of HipHop based on Becky and Angie's background growing up dancing competitively and Andy's experience in business and marketing. They saw a need, took a chance and created a Monster! While Monsters has grown tremendously, the company always strives to maintain the family environment on which it was built.
