Born: June 15. Toronto, ON.

Biography

Although Sandra's first three novels deal with sports themes (swimming and soccer) she would be the first to admit she is far from an athlete! Still, portraying female protagonists as active, healthy young women is a great starting point for examining the complexities of adolescence. Sandra is currently a full time mom and writes part time. She lives in Maple Ridge with her husband, daughter and their two weimaraners.
