This was such a treat getting the chance to talk with Sandra all about her upbringing to her current path to reform the traditional educational system.  Sandra's passion shines through the speakers in the back half of the interview.  You're definitely going to want to listen to this long sit down in full!  Sandra has done some amazing things in her life and doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon.

Side Note: Again, I apologize for the sniffling and throat clearing throughout the interview, hope it doesn't ruin Sandra's amazing interview for you!

To start, Sandra won "Tiny Queen of the Earth" when she was just 4 years old.  We are in the presence of royalty at Firewall!!

Although she claims that's where she peaked in life, she kept climbing from there.  She went to Boston College for undergrad and then decided to join Teach for America which led her to Texas for a couple of years.  She met her husband through the program, and they eventually moved to New York for graduate school.

When she was in Houston, she discovered her passion for teaching kids how to read.  This continues to be her passion and foundation for her current career.

Currently she has a family with her husband of three incredible daughters: Zoey (15), Ana (13), and Evie (8).  Interestingly enough, her husband's job took them to England for a few years before coming back to the States and eventually Sherborn.

I hope you enjoyed this interview as much as I did.  Thank you so much for being on the show Sandra!
