Roberts is a second-year doctoral student in the Department of Biology, at the Graduate School of the City University, of New York and in the Institute of Economic Botany, at the New York Botanical Garden. Andrew earned his B.S. degree in sustainable agriculture (with a concentration in plant sciences) from the University of Maine.
