Lured by the natural beauty of the east coast and the potential for a change of pace, Andrea moved from her condo in downtown Toronto to Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2018. Lucky for her, CSI was an early adopter of remote working and she’s been working from home ever since. As Director of Finance, Andrea focuses on managing the accounting and payroll operations and strategic financial planning for both the Centre for Social Innovation (non-profit) and CSI Institute (charity). Having spent her career in the non-profit sector, she is passionate about creating efficient systems and helping people solve problems. She has an Economics degree from Queen’s University and is a CPA, CMA. In her free time, you can find Andrea crocheting, gardening and hiking by the ocean.
