About Andi
Growth strategist. Ocean explorer. Conservation storyteller.
Splitting time between New York and Perth, Australia.
I'm a strategist, ocean explorer, and co-founder of Edges of Earth. After leading strategy at agencies like Ogilvy and Huge Inc for 15+ years, I shifted focus to documenting positive ocean stories and building impact strategies that align business growth with environmental action.
I'm based between New York and Perth, Australia. I write for Forbes, speak at conferences, and recently became a certified SSI Technical Divemaster—testament to the power of embracing the beginner mindset at any stage of life. My work bridges two worlds: corporate strategy and frontline conservation.

The moment I realized I could build a life around curiosity instead of quarterly targets, the fear of leaving did not disappear. It just stopped being louder than the fear of staying.
