Andrea is a social and environmental activist conducting critical research on the role of accounting in the social and environmental phenomena facing the world. Shx has worked with The Sustainability Consortium, among other leading research institutions and international auditing firms, toward developing uniform, industry-wide sustainability measurement and assurance standards. Toward this goal, Andrea also has immersed hxrself within non-governmental organizations and regulatory institutions (e.g. CERES, AICPA, and SEC) to gain practical experience concerning policy strategy as it relates to sustainability.

Andrea's most recent work relies on feminist methodologies, feminist theories and accounting frameworks to critically examine inequities and oppressions systemic to society, including the Time's Up movement and the semi-legal adult-use cannabis industry within the US. Romi's work has been published in prestigious journals including: Contemporary Accounting Research; Critical Perspectives on Accounting; Auditing: A Journal of Practice and Theory; Accounting, Auditing & Accountability Journal; European Accounting Review; Accounting Forum; Journal of Accounting and Public Policy; Sustainability Accounting, Management and Policy Journal, among others. While hxr work is often citied by global media outlets, more importantly to hxr, it has been utilized to lobby congress toward social and environmental policy changes. Romi is often invited to share hxr expertise on panels, through keynotes and in presentations, while shx continues to serve on numerous departmental, college, university and international committees and acts as an associate editor at two international journals.
