ABOUT ME
I’m Andrea. I’m a coach, mindfulness instructor, runner, hiker, traveler… I could go on and on, but really the most important things are that I am someone who values integrity, authenticity, adventure, and aliveness. I believe in the importance of emotional intelligence, connection, and doing the inner work, because no matter what it is that’s making you feel stuck in your life - whether it’s about health and wellbeing, your career, your relationships, or big life transitions - getting real with yourself, your patterns, and the stories you tell yourself is what is going to allow you to show up and create the life you truly want. It all starts with self-awareness. But don’t worry, we’ll get you to action, too.
Life is meant to be lived out loud, in full color. What does being fully alive mean to you? What are the things in your life that are keeping you small? Where do you feel stuck? Whether you're looking for personal growth, leadership development, focused on your career and relationships, or interested in making wellbeing a priority, my casual, down-to-earth coaching style creates a space for you to show up exactly as you are.
​
My journey to coaching began through teaching yoga and mindfulness and realizing the power of helping people slow down. So many of us move through life in a frenzy, jumping from one thing to the next, and taking pride in being busy. For years, I have been helping people pause, breathe, and connect. With my background in psychology, my ongoing work with students as a Career Coach at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health, and my training in yoga, mindfulness, and coaching, I am here to help you get unstuck.
So, if you’re ready to get messy and do the inner work, let’s dive in!
How I Can Help you
Coaching and Mindfulness Services
Coaching
Coaching is a space to gain insight and take action. Through this coaching-client partnership, we will work together to help you uncover what you really want out of life and the path to get there. We will get clear on the things that fuel you and identify the barriers that currently stand in the way of experiencing the aliveness that each day has to offer.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is about attention and awareness. It's about staying present to what is happening now without worrying about the future or ruminating on the past.
As a mindfulness instructor, I offer a variety of programs and services to help you on your mindfulness journey.

"My first coaching experience with Andrea was wonderful - I was able to gain more clarity and confidence in myself with what I wanted to discuss towards the end of our session. Andrea was a deep listener and attentive to details, through her reframing, I was becoming aware of some of the old patterns and we worked together to solidify small action steps to take. I also felt safe throughout the process. Overall, I really enjoyed Andrea's coaching.”

"Andrea's way of coaching made me feel understood, even though we were completely new acquaintances. I felt she approached what I said with a genuine curiosity and desire to help me move forward and leave behind certain mindsets that weren't serving me anymore. She listened very well and gave me the time and space I needed to fully think about and respond to her questions. She organically helped me arrive at some "aha" moments that allowed me to clearly see what was and wasn't working for me. I learned more about who I am, my values, and who I want to be."

“I feel like I've tapped into real tools to help me reach my goals. I really appreciated Andrea's ability to reflect back to me what she was hearing me say. I'm scrambled pretty often -- it's actually a lot of what we talked about and worked on -- and she perfectly held space for me to offload my thoughts in real time, usually learning new things about myself in the minute, and then helped me capture what I'd just said. Having her be able to streamline the tangled mess that was falling out of my mouth was so helpful! I've had a great time working with Andrea, and I look forward to putting some of the things she helped me come to into practice.”

“Andrea is a remarkable coach! She asked simple, powerful questions and then held the space necessary to allow me to connect with my own inner wisdom. Although we only worked together for a short time, I experienced her as calm and present and immediately felt safe and ready to dive in. I found that our simple conversations and the awareness and insight that I gained informed my choices throughout the weeks we worked together and continue to influence how I choose to show up in my life daily.”
