Meet Sandy
Sandy has been an Elburn resident for 20 years. She earned a bachelor degree in journalism from Roosevelt University and worked as a radio news anchor in Chicago, sharing the microphone with some of the top newscasters in the business.
As a former reporter, she asks questions. Lots of them. She tries to understand issues from all perspectives; to get all the facts. She also listens. Learning what issues are important to you in our community is what’s important to her, too.
After leaving broadcasting, she worked as a county employee at a forest preserve district, where she discovered a passion for the environment. She now works for a statewide conservation coalition, providing marketing and communications support while continuing to advocate for environmental issues.
Our current board member often doesn’t show up or votes “present.” She will show up and represent every constituent in the district and will fight for issues that are important to all.
She’s a proud Democrat, currently serving as communications director for Illinois Democratic Women and also as a precinct comitteeperson for Blackberry 4.
