Andrea R. Lirio
I help creative leaders turn strong vision into work that lands.
I partner with founders, filmmakers, and executives across media, technology, and mission-driven organizations, helping ambitious ideas move through the world with clarity and care. I’m most energized in environments where ideas are actively taking shape, helping leaders clarify what matters, connect the right people, build momentum around meaningful work, and translate vision into experiences that resonate both inside and outside the room.
Most recently, I supported publicity and brand initiatives at Kuku Studios for a Netflix animated feature. Previously, I supported filmmaker relations and global publicity campaigns at Pixar. Today, I work alongside senior leaders in startup and nonprofit environments during periods of growth, fundraising, partnerships, and increased visibility.
What draws me to this work is a deep respect for the creative process itself. I care about building environments where creative people feel trusted, supported, and able to do their best work. I believe strong storytelling, represented honestly and executed with care, has the power to shape culture and stay with people long after a release, launch, or premiere ends.
Based in Brooklyn, I split time between New York and Hawai‘i. I graduated cum laude from the University of California, Berkeley, where I received Superior Distinction as a Citation Winner for my honors thesis, Netflix and a Global Public Sphere, examining how streaming platforms shape public dialogue around the climate crisis.
