About

Hi, I’m Andrea.

Portrait of Andrea Schell.

I’ve developed and managed programs, research, and public engagement initiatives in both freelance and full-time roles. That work has spanned entertainment and media, philanthropy, higher education, healthcare, and community organizations, from program development and public programs to documentary films, coaching, and strategy, with a foundation of qualitative research that keeps it grounded in real experience.
