Her art gallery promotes the appreciation and preservation of Mexican folk and contemporary art. Andrea first joined El Paso Film Festival in its first running year in 2018 as assistant to the Director and volunteer coordinator.

Andrea was born in Chihuahua, Mexico, but has called El Paso home since 2004. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Media Advertising and a minor in Business Marketing from the University of Texas at El Paso. She is currently working on her degree in Art History.  During her time at UTEP, she was a student research assistant for the Restore Sacred Heart project, which ensures the preservation of the patrimony of one of the most iconic buildings in the historic neighborhood of Segundo Barrio. Andrea’s love for history and the local culture is well reflected in her professional experience.

Her involvement and love for film came about in 2015 when she began working with the local production company DoubleScope Films.

As she steps into her role as Executive Director, Andrea hopes to keep working and expanding the cultural reach of the El Paso-Juarez borderland.
