I’m recovering the association meeting planner.  I have over 15+ years of experience in the speaking industry, marketing, strategy, and operations. I know what works and what doesn’t work to grow a speaking business.

Through 1:1 coaching and growth strategy, I help business authors stand out from competitors, monetize their expertise, and grow revenue streams beyond speaking, which doesn’t require getting on a plane.

As a battle-tested Business Manager and COO, I led a thought leader’s speaking business from $300K to over $2 million in just two years.  I developed systems and business strategies and fearlessly pitched and won deals with senior and C-level executives from Fortune companies like NIKE, Disney, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, MetLife, and many more. 

As a marketing strategist, I’ve helped entrepreneurs and professional service founders position themselves as thought leaders and subject matter experts and doubled their speaking fees.

As a consultant, I’ve streamlined and automated systems processes for high-growth companies.  I recently worked with the CEO of a recruiting agency, optimizing their workflows to reduce time-to-hire by a jaw-dropping 30% for their Unicorn cybersecurity startup client. 

I live by the mantra of working smarter, not harder.  As a lifelong learner, I’m always on the cutting edge of technology. I continuously explore innovative tools like ChatGPT to help my clients scale without adding headcount. 

I have an M.A. in International Commerce and Policy from George Mason University and B.S. in Economics from Pennsylvania State University.  Oh, and did I mention I’m a proud resident of the concrete jungle known as New York City?  I live with my amazing husband, beautiful daughter, and our rescue cats, Mac and Cheez.

In my downtime, you’ll catch me soaking up the breathtaking sunsets in Cherry Grove, Fire Island, capturing those picture-perfect moments.  And let’s not forget my passion for making margaritas and cooking up a storm with family and friends – what is success if you can’t share it with those who mean the most to you?

So, if you’re ready to escape the weeds, unlock growth, and streamline success, your truly Andria is prepared to help. I bring tough love, a kickass attitude, and a generous sprinkle of humor to make the journey an absolute blast.

Together, we’ll build a kickass business!

Let’s do this!
