Andrea Goff
Program Coordinator
Andrea has an undergraduate degree in Sociology and Graduate Studies in Social Work and has worked for nonprofit agencies throughout her career, mainly with people of all ages diagnosed with chronic psychiatric disabilities and has always tried to incorporate activity and nutrition into the holistic plan of recovery. It was not uncommon to have programs centered around the importance of exercise like walking, hiking, biking, canoeing or kayaking and healthy nutrition. Andrea lives at the base of Cascade Mountain with the man of her dreams, her husband Bill and their children and pets. Lots of hobbies fill her free time as well as friends and family, preferring to be outdoors as much as black flies and below zero temps will allow.
