Andrea received a bachelor's degree in English literature with a minor in Russian studies at Columbia University. After learning about how beautiful the literature and language of Russia is in college, she has wanted to visit Russia and some of the former Soviet republics. Aside from Andrea's role at Holbrook, she also supports her mother's work at Selva Verde Lodge and Private Reserve - a place that was her introduction to the hospitality and travel industry as well as a reawakening to her Latina heritage. It was also there that she got involved with the Sarapiqui Conservation Learning Center, a non-profit organization closely linked with the Selva Verde Lodge that connects communities with conservation through education and ecotourism.
