Andrea Lyn Van Benschoten’s Summary

I have many passions in my life. A passion for my husband, a passion for fly fishing, a passion for fiber arts and a passion for positive challenges in an encouraging work environment that can lead to improved processes and business success.

I have a varied background in web content, search engine optimization, business analysis, user training and analytics review. For the last 10 years I have worked in the IT Department of Advantage Business Media (formerly Reed New Product division) providing support for all areas of technology.

I have a BA in Journalism and Desktop Publishing and am a cum laude graduate of Seton Hall University and have a strong interest in editorial and web technology.

I have also been a volunteer with Casting for Recovery since 2003. This non-profit takes women in all stages of breast cancer recovery on fly fishing retreats. Since my involvement with the program, I have served as fly fishing instructor, state coordinator and retreat leader. You can learn more about CFR by going to: www.castingforrecovery.org.
