The Great Peninsula Future Festival Director:  2007 to present
This is a green festival that educates the public about sustainability and the environment in Port Gamble, Washington during the first weekend in August.  It makes learning fun, creates community and broadens the base of those who are interested in sustainability. 

Northwest Medical Teams International:  2003 to 2005
Sandra created exhibits for Northwest Medical Teams International that re-created the conditions the organization encounters delivering disaster services in third world countries.  These exhibits immersed the public in real life scenes encountered by medical teams as they deliver life saving services after natural and man made disasters.  The exhibits were used as the centerpiece for a large fundraising effort and toured different cities.  They were also used as the basis for school curriculum in elementary, middle and high schools.    

Sandra is active in the community, democratic party politics, home owners association and has produced many fundraisers, music events, auctions, and dinners for 50 to hundreds of people for a variety of humanitarian causes.
