Andrea was born and raised in Morelia, Mexico. At a young age, she developed a love for cooking and making delicious foods, taking her to one of Mexico’s premier culinary arts university where she endured four years of hard culinary training, graduating top of her class.

As the adventurer she is, it was not strange she accepted her first job and moved over seven thousand miles to Seoul, South Korea, a dynamic and diverse place full of challenges for the young Sous Chef. There, she was able to enchant countless customers with her traditional Mexican flavors and recipes. Her talent allowed the one small Mexican restaurant to expand to five locations around the Korean metropolis before her departure. After South Korea, Andrea took the challenge of moving to a prestigious five-star resort near Dubai, United Arab Emirates. There she managed dozens of cooks and assisted the Executive Chef on the daily restaurant operations.

Andrea moved to Tampa in December of 2014 after getting engaged embarking on her newest challenge in the United States of America for the first time. At her request, she was able to quickly find a job as a cook at the Epicurian Hotel, and due to her experience, within 6 months was promoted to Sous Chef. After proving her technical skills in the kitchen, she was later promoted to Executive Sous Chef.

After a successful career as a Chef, Andrea decided to leave the kitchen to dedicate more quality time to her first child born in July of 2018. Andrea obtained her mortgage loan originator license and worked as a loan officer for a local mortgage lender where she helped dozens of families navigate through the mortgage loan process. She is known and praised for taking and closing the impossible and toughest mortgage files in her office. Now as a real estate agent, she is using her diverse background to help the Tampa Bay community with all real estate needs.
