Executive Directors

Andreana was born and raised in South Jersey, but has lived in Philadelphia for the last 6 years. She completed her undergraduate degree in Spanish and East Asian Studies with a concentration in Japanese in 2015 at Rutgers University - New Brunswick, and then obtained her Master's in Social Work at the University of Pennsylvania in 2019.

Today, Andreana works as a facilitator at Bread and Roses Community Fund - Philadelphia's largest funder for grassroots organizing. Andreana attributes her success at home and at school to the time spent at the youth center, and is excited to help usher in a new generation of martial artists, particularly the girls!
