Andrea, a renowned American actress, was born and raised in Garden City, New York. Her journey in the performing arts began at the tender age of four, and she has since become an award-winning talent in the industry.
Andrea's early education at the prestigious Waldorf School of Garden City fostered her creativity, imagination, and love for the arts, dance, music, nature, and language. She learned French, German, and Latin, and started playing the flute in the third grade.
At the age of 12, Andrea began taking acting classes at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute in New York City. She further honed her skills through a summer program in Italy, where she studied music, acting, and art at the State University of New York. As a result, she became proficient in conversational Italian and French.
After graduating from Garden City High School, Andrea auditioned for the Juilliard School Drama Department. She went on to perform as a singer on Broadway and Radio City Music Hall with Barry Manilow, and continued to work as a classically trained actor, musician, and dancer in New York City.
Andrea's career eventually led her to Los Angeles, where she studied at the Beverly Hills Playhouse and the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute. She trained under the guidance of renowned instructors, including Ted Sluberski, Charles Nelson Reilly, Burt Reynolds, Charles Durning, Sir Richard Clifford, and Dom DeLuise.
Andrea's breakthrough role in the feature film Letters to God led her back to the East Coast, where she has since worked consistently in television and film. When schedules permit, she returns to her theatre roots, and has become a sought-after actor for film and television.
Currently, Andrea is represented by Eris Talent Agency in New York and The Burns Agency in the Southeast.
