Andrea Parisi was hired at BICA in 1989 as the Education Coordinator for the Association. As Andrea’s responsibilities grew to become more pivotal to the management team, she was promoted to Vice President and in 2005 was elected President of BICA by the Board of Directors. During her tenure, Andrea was instrumental in adding new services to the Association, including BICA’s cornerstone product—the nationwide Preliminary Notice service. In 2014, Andrea initiated the Association’s strategic relocation to Rancho Cucamonga, California, to mark its entry into a new chapter in the company’s rich history. Andrea graduated from California State University, Long Beach, with a degree in Political Science. Upon graduation, she moved to Washington DC, where she worked with members of Congress and later as a caterer—both positions that honed her skills in negotiation, customer service, innovation and creativity. Andrea lives in beautiful Rancho Cucamonga with her sometimes sweet, sometimes ornery, always eccentric cat, Emi.
