As the Content Director and Executive Producer at Core Creative in Milwaukee WI, Andrea Nordgren is foremost a storyteller with a desire to inspire people through the work she creates.

Andrea wrote her first script in 5th grade and and spent her teenage years drawing and painting until starting out her career as a graphic designer back when Macs were still black and white. Besides taking a 5-year hiatus to work as a drug and alcohol addiction counselor in both New York and Chicago, she has spent 27-years in advertising — on the client as well as the agency side — all with a focus on visual storytelling. An experienced producer and director, she has worked on numerous award-winning TV spots, videos, and documentaries for a variety of clients and causes.

In addition to her work at Core Creative, she also owns an indie film production company called Heroine which is dedicated to telling social justice stories.
