As the CEO and Co-Founder of Intrinsic Advanced Materials and Co-Inventor of CiCLO® technology, Andrea has a wealth of experience across advertising, business development and technology innovation. Throughout her decade-long journey from co-inventor to CEO, she has experienced firsthand the challenges and triumphs of commercializing a scientific technology in the often misunderstood industry of biodegradable plastics.

She loves the challenge of jumping into the deep end and is an excellent orchestrator and entrepreneur, allowing her to push the limits to breathe new life to brands and spearhead new brands themselves.

Over the last decade, Ferris has remained dedicated to developing the company’s patented CiCLO® technology. With a passion to solve the existential threat of plastic pollution in our environment, Ferris has co-created a first-of-its-kind upstream solution that combines durability and sustainability.
