53. All Things Indy with Andrea Watts

Andrea is the Chief Communications Officer for the City of Indianapolis’ Department of Metropolitan Development where she gets to practice her passion for the city on a daily basis. We’ve seen her referred to as Indy’s Leslie Knope in multiple places and we think the love for Indy that she shared with us backs that up. She even worked at Indy Parks and Rec for over a year.

In this episode, you’ll hear Andrea tell us about a ton of cool things happening in the city from Indy Turns 200 to Count Me INdy, her background and how she got to become the CCO for the DMD, and some of the projects within Indianapolis that she’s gotten to work on that mean a lot to her. Be sure to check the show notes for links to a bunch of the cool things that she shared.
