Andrea is committed to continuous growth, training regularly with some of Toronto’s top choreographers, including Pyro Chung at Footnotes Academy, Tatiana Parker at Home Intensive, and through drop-in sessions at Studio North and Kaizen Dance Initiative. She has also trained and performed with AIM Toronto at their 2024 Spotlight showcase, bringing to life choreography by industry leaders such as Shameeka Blake, Derick Robinson, Hollywood Jade, and Snoopy, among others.Beyond dance, Andrea is a working actor and model, actively expanding her skill set through top-tier workshops and industry courses.
