We love what we do

She joined Medmastery as a talent acquisition specialist, to combine her love for medicine and medical education with efforts to identify the most suited teachers for our courses and the best members for our team! Andrea loves spending time with her family, traveling, and connecting with her friends around the world, reading and listening to music, and savoring a cold beer at the beach.
