She performed stand-up comedy in venues in Los Angeles and San Francisco, including The Improv, The Comedy Store, The Ice House and The Punchline. Her one-woman show "Andi's Act" was a critical favorite and she appeared in dozens of other plays in the LA area. She was also a member of the improv group ComedySportz. During this time Andi held a series of odd jobs, including writing greeting cards, selling RV’s, waitressing, and performing a live stunt show at Universal Studios. She was also doing stand-in work for game shows, a stint which led to her first hosting job for Ralph Edwards/Stu Billett productions, a comedy game show pilot called Bring on the Boys. Several pilots followed, as did the nationally syndicated series Kwik Witz, Essentials on TLC, Fit Resort and Spa on FitTV, and Friends or Lovers on USA. Andi filmed dozens of commercials, including spots for Breathe Right, Nyquil, Expedia, USPS, Equal, Toyota, Snickers, Entemann's to name a few.

She did several sketches on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, played a ditsy psychology teacher on Zoey 101, a perky TV host opposite Salma Hayek on Ugly Betty, an annoyed soccer mom opposite Simon Baker in The Mentalist and appeared nude to Tony Shaloub's chagrin in Monk.
