Professional story
A career that grew layer by layer
Today, Andrea serves as a Senior Enterprise Architect at a Fortune 100 company, working where business needs, technology strategy, data, and enterprise architecture come together.
She did not start at the enterprise level. Her career began close to the underlying data, as a Database Administrator. From there it expanded into data architecture, where the focus widened from individual databases to how information is structured and used across systems, and then into enterprise architecture.
That path gives Andrea perspective across both the foundations of enterprise technology and the broader architectural decisions that shape complex organizations. Her view of architecture is grounded in hands-on experience with the data that systems ultimately depend on.
