Andrade will oversee employee recruitment and benefits, and take a large role in modernizing human resources procedures. She joined the district in August 2018 as a professional development specialist. That work involved partnering with district leaders to improve employee performance processes, as well as working on recruitment, talent management and diversity, and equity and inclusion efforts.
She has led professional development programs for new employees, classified staff, Classified Senates at Grossmont and Cuyamaca colleges, and the district office. In 2021, she received the Chancellor and Classified Senate Award, which recognizes the excellence of classified, or non-instructional, staff.
Andrade holds a Masters of Science degree in human services with a concentration in community psychology from Springfield College in Massachusetts, and a bachelor’s degree in child and family development from San Diego State University.
