She is the Founder & Chief Creative Officer of WORTHY, which is a platform focused on helping women stop procrastinating on their dreams, and take confident action towards creating a life they love without overwhelm. Raised in a tiny mud hut in Zimbabwe with no running water or electricity, Sandra has never been one to let circumstances define her. Through hard work, and support from her "village", she became a management consultant, advising major global companies. She then went on to build two successful companies. But despite all her professional success, she knew she wasn't walking in her purpose. Sandra made the decision to go back to school in 2015 to get a master's degree in Journalism, Storytelling & Documentary Filmmaking from Columbia University. Through the power of story, and leveraging her experience as a management consultant, Sandra has made it her mission to help others create the best version of themselves. She is building brands focused on providing inspiration, tools and community. Sandra is also the founder of Ndini, which is a platform focused on telling the often untold stories of inspiring, trailblazing women of African descent.
