Hello, my name is Helen DeAndrade, aka "Lelly," beloved wife, sister, daughter, niece, aunt and friend.
I am a Zumba® fitness instructor...
I fell head over heels for the combination of fitness and fun that defines Zumba® and became a licensed instructor (ZIN) in 2008. It is my sheer joy to bring skill, energy, passion and great big smile to hundreds of dedicated followers each week. Find me on Zumba,com.
I am a novice baker, avid knitter, thrifty home decorator, decent painter and world traveler...
With a bachelor's degree in Art from Brown University and 2 master's degrees in painting from SUNY Albany, I love any and all opportunities to explore color, texture and design – whether you eat it, wear it, live in it or simply look at it. I've had the opportunity to travel extensively through Europe and Asia as a global marketing executive, but in recent years my trips have been more personal (and a lot more fun!), thanks to my loving husband and travel companion, Steve.
