Biography
Andrea’s journey has taken her from Mexico to France, India, and now Canada; living, studying, and working in radically different cultures along the way. She earned her degree in Communication Sciences at Tecnológico de Monterrey, spending a semester abroad at Sciences Po Lille in France, where she discovered just how life-changing international experiences can be.
Those adventures sparked a passion for helping others step into the world with curiosity and confidence. Now, as a Global Learning Advisor, Andrea enjoys supporting students through every stage of their own global journeys: from dreaming and planning to traveling and returning home with new perspectives.
She has visited over 50 countries so far — and is always planning the next adventure — because she believes every trip changes you a little (for the best!), and that the best souvenirs are the stories of your travel hiccups!
International experience: Studied at Sciences Po Lille (France); lived and worked in Mexico and India.
Languages spoken: English, Spanish, French and basic Hindi
