Through Yoga, Andrea challenges herself every day as she teaches, to find her voice, and to trust that voice, knowing that what she shares comes from the heart and is shared with love and kindness. Before becoming a Certified Yoga Instructor and going into the field of health and wellness, Andrea had a successful career in finance, working for Fortune 500 companies in the US and abroad. Nearly 10 years ago, after having some serious health issues caused by stress, she decided to take the first step on the journey to becoming who she is today and trained to become a yoga teacher. 
​
Andrea moved to Nosara, Costa Rica, looking for change, looking to heal from physical ailments, looking to completely change her life style. In Nosara she healed her body with Yoga, exercise, and clean and healthy LIVING (emphasis on the word LIVING).  Andrea now teaches at the world-renowned Bodhi Tree Resort and Retreat Center, and now at Flow Studio in Hood River. 

Through Yoga, Andrea finds more balance in her life, more strength, more flexibility, more awareness, and so much more, and not just on the mat, but most importantly...off the mat. Through Yoga she created long life bonds with many of her students, reconnected to herself, reconnected with old friends, and continues to meet amazing humans every day. Andrea is full of gratitude towards this ancient practice and to all of her teachers along the way and of course to all of her students.
