My name is Andrea Zackary, I’m the founder of DEF EVENTS & BEYOND based in Brampton, Ontario. I grew up hard of hearing from the age of six.

Early in my professional career, I worked in the hospitality industry as a front desk agent. I suddenly became completely Deaf at the age of 25 and I subsequently lost my job as a result. I did not let that stop me! I went back to school to pursue a career as a Personal Support Worker to help seniors within the Deaf community. I completed my studies and immediately found gainful employment, however I realized I wanted to do more for the community.

In 2014, I took a leap of faith and decided to start my own business which is today known as DEF EVENTS & BEYOND.
