Andrea Burritt, Director of Sanctuary Operations

Andrea, Sanctuary Managing Director, began her vegan journey back in 2007.  When she found herself struggling to stay committed in 2015, she began volunteering at a farmed animal sanctuary.  In doing so she not only renewed her reasons for being vegan, but found her passion for sanctuary work and giving rescued animals the life they always deserved.  After spending 6 years working at farmed animal sanctuaries in the South and New England, Andrea joined CAS in 2021 as the Adoption and Transport Coordinator and was promoted to Sanctuary Operations Director in mid-2022. She is excited to take on a new role helping animals find loving homes so even more can be rescued.  When she’s not at the Sanctuary working, Andrea can often be found cuddled up with her senior dog Lola, or taking in all the beautiful sights New York has to offer.
