In Memory

"This page is dedicated in loving memory to my dearest best friend and Mom, Sheri Elam. She was called Home on March 30, 2003, after fighting a difficult battle of six months with a devastating form of cancer called Multiple Myeloma.

I am so extremely blessed to have had such an amazing mother raise me. Through her guidance, she led me to believe in myself, to value life, family and friends, and to live my life in a positive and moral manner. She was my biggest supporter, and I was able to accomplish so many wonderful things because of her.

I know Mom is always watching over me - still guiding me with her wisdom, supporting me with her love, and protecting and comforting me from life's bumps and bruises.

And I can always feel her smile, especially when I sing an aria..."

Fitness

Health and fitness are very important components of Andria's lifestyle. In addition to her vigorous dance schedule (currently several days of technique classes each week, plus rehearsals and teaching Ballroom), she devotes time to workout 6 days a week. This includes 3-4 days of weight training, 3-4 timed running sessions per week, and seasonal Triathlon training, which adds swimming and biking into the mix. She also takes weekly figure skating lessons and is currently working on Freestyle 3 elements. Andria also enjoys trying new ways to stay fit...Some of her favorites have been rock climbing, mountain biking and flying on the Trapeze!

Andria is the International Spokesperson for the Weekly Fitness Challenge, which provides free health and fitness events to underserved communities within major cities around the country.

She also recently served as a spokesmodel for Pure Fitness Health Clubs in San Diego. Over the course of several years, Andria attended many health and fitness events and appeared in television commercials on their behalf.

Public Speaking

Andria's love for public speaking was discovered in the first grade, when she just wouldn't wrap up what was supposed to be a brief presentation on Koalas. Several years later, that first grade teacher encouraged her to enter the school district's speech contest...Andria won first place in her school two years in a row, and went on to win second and fourth place those years at the district-wide competition.

Andria is now a very skilled public speaker, and has been interviewed on numerous local and national radio, news and television broadcasts. While working as a Senior Beauty Advisor for Boots Cosmetics, corporate asked her to represent the company on radio stations across the country for a special promotion. In addition to being the current International Spokesperson for the Weekly Fitness Challenge, Andria has been a volunteer speaker with several prestigious charity organizations including the American Cancer Society, M.A.D.D. and Big Brothers Big Sisters. She also worked with the San Diego Symphony to help promote their music outreach programs. (For more information on Andria's community service, please visit her Miss California page.) She also recently served as a spokesmodel for Pure Fitness Health Clubs in San Diego.
