Following several years of working in broadcast news journalism with the CBC, Shaw TV and NBC News, Andrea decided to step away from the camera and focus on honing her skills in media and public relations. She has never looked back.

Born and raised in Vancouver, Andrea spent the last three years as the media relations manager for Vancouver, Coast & Mountains Tourism Region.  She was also an avid volunteer with the TMAC BC chapter where she was event coordinator until taking on the co-chair position earlier this year. Today, we are pleased to announce that Andrea has swapped her raincoat for a ‘parka’ and joined Tourism Calgary as Manager, Public Relations.

When not at the office, Andrea can be found in, on, or near the water and trains as a competitive rower. An admitted ‘brunch addict’ and unashamedly bad dancer, Andrea is looking forward to exploring Calgary’s culinary scene and discovering all corners of the city. You can personally welcome Andrea to the TMAC Alberta-NWT Chapter. Here’s how to connect with her.
