Andrea "Dre" Pedemonte is a recent transfer student to The George Washington University continuing her B.A in English Studies while adding a minor in Journalism and Mass Communications. As a first-generation Peruvian-American, she is passionate about continuing her undergraduate degree in our nation's capital. While she continues to become her own in her growing academic and writing career, Andrea never forgets her roots, being raised in a large and lively family household in Northern Virginia.
She was the 2019 Youth Scholar Recipient of the National Student Language Initiative from the Department of State, an opportunity that has immensely contributed to her love of language studies and travel. She speaks English, Spanish, French, and Russian (and is currently on the track to learn Italian). Her other interests include being a complete bookworm, volunteering in her local community, and playing her parlor-sized Breedlove guitar called Joplin, named after her favorite musician.
