Podcast Synopsis:<\/h6>\n

Andia Winslow<\/strong> – a Professional Golfer, Certified Fitness Professional and an elite athlete who trains with USA Track & Field joins the show.\u00a0As an ambassador for the Women\u2019s Sports Foundation, she is committed to work that encourages youth and adults to maintain healthy and active lifestyles.<\/p>\n

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\u2019s Congressional Gold 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.<\/p>\n

A noted junior golf career began at the age of 11 in Seattle, Washington at Jefferson Park Golf Course \u2013 known fondly as the \u201chome\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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- and serves as a professional athlete ambassador for the Women\u2019s Sports Foundation and the LPGA\/USGA Girls\u2019 Golf Program. In April 2006, she became only the fourth African American to ever compete in a Ladies Professional Golf Association Tour event.\u00a0 An elite Certified Fitness Professional and wellness advocate, Andia believes that \u201cthe best experiences are those that are shared.\u201d Via her fitness company, ADUB365 FIT, she conducts clinics and speaks around the country promoting healthy lifestyles and physical activity for youth and adults.<\/p>\n
