December 2022 — We were deeply saddened to learn of Andrea’s passing. Andrea, her husband, Adam, and their families were involved with the CF Foundation in many capacities. She was a patient advocate, peer mentor, event speaker, and contributor to the CF Community Blog. She will be missed by many.
Andrea has been a patient advocate, peer mentor, and guest speaker at CF Foundation fundraisers for more than 20 years. After earning a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Florida and a master's degree in mental health counseling, Andrea worked for a few years before her health forced her to go on disability. In May 2015, Andrea received her life saving double-lung transplant. She lives in Florida with her husband, Adam, son, Bryce, and dog, Brooklynn. Andrea loves to spend time with her family and friends, go to the beach, travel, and exercise. She attributes her good health to her amazing support system and positive attitude.
