Andreeva was born in Fergana, Uzbekistan, in 1921. She graduated from the Department of Architecture of Central Asian Polytechnic Institute in Tashkent in 1948, proceeding to work at Uzplanproekt institute in Tashkent. Between 1952 and 1956, she was based at Uzgosproekt in Tashkent, where she moved from regular to senior architect. During this period, Andreeva designed several residential, public, and educational buildings in Tashkent and other parts of Uzbekistan.
In 1956, Andreeva moved to Barnaul, in Siberia, Russia, where she was the leader of engineer team at Krayproekt institute in 1956-1957; leader of engineer team and head engineer of construction trust AKPS in 1957-1960; chief architect of the department of industrial construction of Altay Region Design Institute in Barnaul in 1960-1961. In 1961, Andraeeva moved to Sverdlovsk (Ekaterinburg) in the Urals region of Russia, where she became the leader of design team and an acting brigade head at the Sverdoblproekt Institute. In 1962 Andraeeva moved again, to the Vladproekt institute in the city of Vladimir in central Russia, where she was head of design team until 1963. In 1963-1964 she worked as the head of design team and brigade head at Kazgorstroyproekt institute in Alma-Ata (Almaty), Kazakhstan. Andreeva’s unusually frequent moves during this period could have followed the career trajectory of her husband.
In 1964, Andraeeva moved to Minsk, where she remained at Minskpraekt institute until her retirement in 1986. In 1976, she became a leader of design team and chief specialist on the planning and building of residential microdistricts. She was promoted to head of group section in 1983. In Belarus, Andraeeva was involved in the design of residential buildings for the new microdistricts, particularly Rakauskaya, Kurasoushchina (diploma of the State Committee of the BSSR), Kharkovskaya, and Aerodromnaya microdistricts.
