Ran away with the circus and loves every minute of it!
Andrea has been the director of Spark Circus for seven years. She spins poi, and performs with fire fans, though she considers herself more of a behind the scenes organizer than a true performer! (Luckily, the kids aren’t too picky! ) She loves bringing the smiles to the children and witnessing how the experience with this volunteer circus stimulates beautiful growth and awareness in all the performers. She is deeply honoured to spend her time with such an amazing group of people each year!
