Andrea Boehlke/Game Changers

Andrea Boehlke is a contestant from .
Andrea started her third outing in a very comfortable position, being in the majority alliance of her original tribe and subsequent tribes following the switches. Following the merge, Andrea was in a power position until her ally Zeke Smith saw her as too threatening of a player and flipped to the opposing alliance to get her out. This caused her to blindside the former. Andrea survived many close calls at Tribal Council and used her relationships and persuasive faculties to keep herself in the game. She also proved to be a challenge threat, winning every Reward Challenge she participated in and two individual Immunity Challenges. Eventually, Andrea was eliminated by her allies at the final eight, again due to the threat she posed.

How have you changed since the last time you played? I'm older and wiser! I was only 21 the first time I played Survivor and then 23 during my second season. I definitely feel more confident as a person, so, hopefully this translates to the game and I'm not-so paranoid. I'm also not so boy crazy, which is ideal!
What skills do you bring to Survivor that will make you a useful member of the group and what skills have you been learning since you last played? I'm confident in my challenge skills, so I know I'll be a great asset early on. After playing two seasons, I know how to work my social skills to form a solid group. My biggest hurdle will be to not come across as a schemer. In Caramoan, I was constantly on the chopping block for that reason, so I've been coming up with strategies to avoid that.
What are you most proud of from the last time? I was pretty satisfied with my game in Caramoan for the reason that I was able to last as long as I did despite being high on the hit list of many people. I was also proud of myself for being able to laugh at being blindsided, and realize it's just a game.
What, if anything, do you most regret? Ha! There's a long list, but off the top of my head it would have to be finding myself in a showmance again! Not playing the Idol! Trusting Cochran!
How will you play differently this time? I will have to play a low-key aggressive game. I definitely tried to overcorrect my Redemption Island game by playing very aggressively in Caramoan, but I think everyone could see I was trying to "make moves." I have to find some sort of balance between the two and also try to break away from my "us vs. them" old-fashioned way of playing the game. I have to be open to working with every single person.https://www.cbs.com/shows/survivor/cast/215582/
==Survivor==
Andrea started on Nuku. Nuku won the first two challenges. She was switched to the brand-new Tavua tribe after the first tribe switch which won the next three challenges, then back to Nuku after the second tribe switch. After Nuku lost immunity on Days 16 and 18, Andrea joined the majority in voting out Sandra Diaz-Twine and Jeff Varner.
After the merge, Andrea won the first individual Immunity Challenge. On Day 25, she was targeted by the Power Six alliance. At Tribal Council, she received five votes but Power Six member Sarah Lacina flipped to her side, narrowly blindsiding Debbie Wanner. She won her second Immunity Challenge on Day 29. She then campaigned for her alliance member Zeke Smith's elimination because he had been targeting her for a while. Andrea got her way as Zeke was blindsided at Tribal Council. On Day 33, Andrea believed Brad Culpepper would be the target, both her and Aubry Bracco voted for Brad at Tribal Council, but the rest voted against her, so Andrea was blindsided. She took her elimination well and before she left Tribal Council, she playfully tickle-attacked her ally Cirie Fields after realizing Cirie had also voted for her.
At Final Tribal Council, Andrea commended Sarah Lacina's game but criticized her for the way she played with people's emotions, and she criticized Brad for not socializing with people on the bottom. Andrea was one of the seven jurors that voted for Sarah to win, saying she felt her game was overall far more strategic and better all around than Brad's, in spite of Brad's impressive number of immunity wins.
