After officially retiring from a career as a project manager and, more recently, as a compliance officer in the banking industry, Andrea followed her passion for all things beautiful and natural by founding Will Skill Passion LLC and its brand, Gorgeous Shawls.

“I don’t see myself as a retiree,” Andrea explains. “Instead, I’m eager to share my love for exquisitely crafted shawls and scarves made from silk, cashmere, and wool, featuring both traditional and modern designs, with a broader audience. Supporting these time-honored traditions, which are sadly fading away, is a mission I would like to contribute to.”

Andrea’s venture reflects her commitment to preserving the artistry of handcrafted textiles while offering luxurious, unique pieces to discerning clients.
