DAVID GOLLEY, PRODUCTION JOURNALIST/NEWS EDITOR, ITV ANGLIA
"I had the pleasure of working with Andrea for three years. She is a hard working producer and reporter with a great news judgement and ability to bring any story alive. Her natural enthusiasm shines though and her constant good humour is an added bonus. She would be a real asset to any news organisation."

NINA NANNAR, ARTS CORRESPONDENT, ITV NEWS
"Andrea is a great presence to have in a newsroom, incredibly enthusiastic and hard working. She is smart and with her journalistic training knows exactly what is required to bring a news story to air. Having worked in a UK regional newsroom she can work under pressure and quickly and always delivers to the goods. She's also a lovely person to have around and would be an asset to any newsroom. I was sorry to see her go from ours."
