On her free time, Andrea enjoys swimming, biking, playing tennis and pursuing new learning opportunities, all the while spending quality time with her family. These hobbies help her unwind and maintain her well-being, allowing her to return to her work with renewed energy and focus.
To other women, Andrea says, “You can achieve great things if you never give up on your dreams. Your dreams are valid! Pursue them with dedication and perseverance and support other women along the way.”
