With her Travelista partner Teri, she co-hosted red carpet interviews at Urban World Film Festival; Sundance Film Festival; AOL; and co-directed and hosted AOL’s Return to New Orleans webisode series. She is featured in the series “All Girls Getaway” for Fine Living Network; and has been interviewed on The Mo’Nique Show on BET.

Andrea is also the creator of the The Velvet Circle, a lifestyle company focused on art, style, and events in Italy and New York. Most recently she produced segments for Wine and Fashion Florence, Art Basel, and New York Fashion Week, spotlighting fashion photographer Nigel Barker, supermodel Alek Wek, model/activist Angela Lindvall, and actors James Lesure and Lauren Hutton.
