No, no, not the real Brett Favre. This gorgeous lady is Mrs. Andrea Schultz from Wisconsin. Andrea has been using the Brett Favre handle on Mixx as her and her husband are big Green Bay Packer fans as you can tell from the above picture.  I have enjoyed the conversations and comments with Andrea on Mixx.com since she has joined. She always submits great content and comments. Her actions and community involvement on Mixx shot her to Super Mixxer status rather quickly, which is why I think we should all get to know more about her.

Where are you from?

I grew up outside a really small town in Northern Wisconsin, Wittenberg, population 1,101. I now live in a little bigger town about an hour south. I’m definitely a Wisconsin girl through and through!

What do you do for a living?

I work in search engine marketing.  Yeah I know, something social communities don’t care for.  But Mixx is something I do to keep the insanity in check.  Promotion of clients is something I steer away from.   Mixx is way too much fun for that. It’s always interesting to watch the spammers on Mixx though.

Where does your Mixx name come from?

I am a huge Brett Favre fan, I mean all Packer fans pretty much were, up until the recent events.  Being a loyal Cheesehead, the latest rumors that Favre may become a Viking are really stabbing Packer Backers right in the hearts!  I can’t forget what he did for the Packers, so I’m still a fan.  I would be devastated if he does in fact become a Viking though!  That’s just as bad as becoming a Bear!  It’s like if Jeter joined the Red Sox!  Ahh!  Nooo! Stop!

What are your interests?

Sports in general – Football (Packers), NASCAR (Matt Kenseth, Kyle Busch and anyone beating Hendrick drivers), baseball (New York Yankees – don’t ask me how that happened), WWE Wrestling (it’s fake, I know), crime related TV shows and putzing on the Internet.  I also have a houseplant care blog that’s doing better than I ever imagined and just started a new drink reviews Web site that’s still a major work in progress.  I like to keep busy!

What is in the “Your Mixx” section?

A little bit of everything.   Sports, Breaking News, a couple of my Groups, Tech News.  I love that I can come to Mixx and get such a cross section of information.

What do you like most about Mixx?

The community itself.  Everyone for the most part is laid back and enjoys a little humor. Reading the comments is one of my favorite ways to spend some time.  Though they can get so entertaining that I can get a little carried away and spend TOO much time on them! J

Advice for new Mixxers?

Get to know Mixx first by contributing and reading stories.  Get a feel for it.  Once you get the basics down you realize all the potential and interactivity the Mixx community has to offer.  Don’t use Mixx for anything other than what it was meant for.  Share interesting news stories, get to know other Mixxers through their comments, network with those you find interesting.  Don’t spam Mixx, I’ll report you!

Anything you want everyone else to know about you?

I was at the 2007 Divisional Playoff game, the Snow Bowl at Lambeau Field between the Packers and the Seahawks.  I’ve been fortunate to have gone to many games at Lambeau but nothing was more amazing than that game.  On a side note, I’m number 68, 545 on the Packer Season Ticket waiting list.  I’ve moved up about 1000 spots in 8 years.  Maybe my kids’ kids will get the tickets someday.
