Apart from being a highly skilled and dedicated UX- and service designer, Sandra possesses this incredible drive to continuously learn, grow and develop not only for herself, but also for her colleagues, her organization, and for the design community as a whole.
On top of the more technical skills, Sandra is an extremely positive, friendly, and fun person to work with
[...] She has a natural way of connecting with everyone she meets - which is both an asset in the day-to-day collaboration, but also in relation to workshops and collaboration with stakeholders in general.

Sandra is a force of nature! The rate at which she learns, the amount of energy she brings into a room, and the courage she has to do and say what she believes in, is simply mind-blowing. [...] She brings just a little more creativity, positivity, speed and confidence into the work and workshops and it spills over to anyone who she collaborates with.
