As a child, Andia Winslow dreamt of taking to the skies to
                                               continue the legacy established by her late grandfather Colonel
                                               Robert V. Winslow, a Tuskegee Airman and proud US Air Force
                                               serviceman. Although, as a young adult, she set her sights instead on
                                               a career as a professional golfer, she was proud to accept her
                                               grandfather’s Congressional Medal of Honor on behalf of her family.
                                               This commitment to service and leadership has been the
                                               undercurrent in all of her ventures since childhood.

                                               A noted junior golf career began at the age of 11 in Seattle,
                                               Washington at Jefferson Park Golf Course – known fondly as the
                                               “home” of Fred Couples, PGA Tour Professional. Though actively
                                               recruited by more than twenty-five colleges and universities as a top
                                               75 world ranked junior golfer, Andia chose to travel across the
                                               country to attend Yale University, an institution known famously for
                                               its academic rigor. As a college freshman, and the first African
                                               American woman to compete in the Ivy League, she helped the
                                               Bulldogs secure the storied Ivy League Championship Title.

 While at Yale, her interest in historical and ethnographic research culminated in the receipt of three
undergraduate research grants. The first, an international travel fellowship, allowed her study in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil to examine the effects of globalization on artistic traditions. The second, a Mellon
Undergraduate Research Grant, facilitated the completion of her Sociology Senior Thesis in 2004. An
interdisciplinary focus in Film Studies and a Fine Arts grant recognized her efforts as a documentary
filmmaker. Her first film was selected for official inclusion in ten international film festivals as well as
special presentations at higher education conferences and major research universities.

Although an intellect and an artist, Andia is
perhaps best known for her passion and
pure athleticism. She hails from a family of
athletes that includes current and former
NFL players, a professional basketball
player and martial artists. She is a
formidable on-course competitor --who
trained for a time with USA Track & Field
under famed coach Brooks Johnson-- and
serves as an athlete ambassador for the
Women’s Sports Foundation and the
LPGA/USGA Girls’ Golf Program. In April
2006, she became only the fourth African
American to ever compete in a Ladies
Professional Golf Association Tour event.
