Biography

Christine Andrews is the Executive Assistant to the Dean at the URI College of Business. Christine comes to URI after an 18-year career at the corporate office of Waterford Hotel Group, a nationally ranked premiere hotel management company located in Connecticut.

In her role in the Dean’s Office, Christine applies her experience as a hospitality administrative professional to her Executive Assistant tasks. She is genuine, sincere, and extremely helpful to all; and a welcome first point of contact to the Dean.

With hospitality firmly planted in her roots, it’s not surprising that Christine is a graduate of UMASS Amherst with a BS in Hotel, Restaurant, and Travel Administration. 

At the university, Christine collaborates with many colleagues across campus, most notably while volunteering as the Chief of Staff on the TEDxURI team. As an avid walker, most days you’ll find Christine walking on campus midday, always to attain her daily step goals. Reading, bike riding, and spending time with her family, cats, and grand dog, are all favorite past times.
