In 1972 when Sandra passed her real estate licensing test, it was the beginning of a childhood dream. A dream to enhance the quality of life enjoyed by her neighbors, friends and community by finding them the home of their dreams. Since that time many changes in the industry have made the methods of fulfilling that dream different but the goal remains the same. A wife since 1966 and mother of 5, she knows and appreciates how important where you live can be in relationship to the quality of life enjoyed by the ones you love.

Sandra recognizes that being able to best represent your clients can only be achieved by a continuing commitment to education and knowledge. Thus, she strives to remain on the cutting edge of her industry by ever seeking to increase her knowledge. The designations she has earned which reflect these commitments are the Certified Buyer Broker, Leadership Training Graduate, and Graduate REALTOR® Institute. She also took Appraising at North Eastern University; won a writing contest sponsored by her local Board, and has taken numerous other classes throughout the years.

She served as the Treasurer for the Hudson Chamber of Commerce, was Federal Coordinator to Congressman Charlie Bass for the NH Board of REALTORS®. She served as a Director and Treasurer for the Nashua Board of REALTORS® and worked her way through all the offices on State and Local Level for The Women's Council of REALTORS®. In 1991 she was named "Woman of the Year" for the Nashua Women's Council of REALTORS® and in 1992 was New Hampshire Women's Council of REALTORS® "Woman of the Year". She was a Director for the Graduate REALTOR® Institute in 1998. She has been involved in the Junior Achievement economics course designed to teach students about entrepreneurship in business. From 2001-2002, she was the fourth VP of the Nashua Federated Republican Women's Club. In 2006, she was awarded the Nashua Republican "Woman of the Year", by the Nashua Area Federated Republican Women's Club.

Sandra takes great pride in her profession and pleasure in providing customer service. Her commitment to her industry and community is her way of giving back to the city, state and nation that she loves.

Sandra currently chairs the Nashua Republican City Committee, and is a director on The New Hampshire Republican Executive Committee. She was appointed to the NH Housing Authority by Governor Benson in 2004 and elected to the Nashua Board of Education for Ward 4 in 2006, both for 5 year terms. She is currently on the Honorary Board for Vesta Roy Excellence in Public Service.
