Hi, I'm Andrea. I'm a Senior Talent Program Specialist with over a decade of experience in HR and Talent Attraction, including recruitment, workforce development, community outreach and engagement, and strategic talent initiatives. Passionate about helping others grow in their career paths, with a strong focus on supporting underserved communities and at-risk youth.

What part of your work makes you feel like you're making a difference?
I feel like I’m making a difference when I can open doors for people who may not otherwise see a clear path forward. Supporting individuals as they gain clarity, confidence, and access to meaningful career opportunities—especially those who have faced barriers—reminds me that my work has real, lasting impact beyond the workplace.

One moment I felt especially proud was seeing the impact of connecting individuals to opportunities they may not have pursued on their own. Whether it was watching a student discover a career path they were excited about or hearing from someone who successfully transitioned into a role after guidance and support, those moments reinforced why this work matters. Knowing that my efforts helped create access, confidence, and momentum is incredibly rewarding.

Go-to way to start your morning?
My go-to way to start my morning is with prayer. It helps center me, set the tone for my day, and ground my intentions in purpose and gratitude. Starting this way allows me to move through the day with clarity, patience, and focus.
