Description

In this episode, we continue our Sibling Series with Alec’s sister, Andrea Jensen Semidey. Andrea lives in Allen, TX with her husband and 4 kids. She works in finance as a corporate attorney. She graduated from SMU with a degree in Advertising and History and graduated from law school in New York City at Yeshiva University. She enjoys horseback riding, yoga, running, legos, cooking, baking and reading, and only wishes for more time to do any one of those things. She and her family are huge "soccer" fans and Arsenal supporters. 

Andrea shares her perspective on growing up with a brother on the autism spectrum — the challenges, the joy, and the lessons that shaped her along the way.
