Hi! I'm Sandra (she/her).

I'm a social activist, educator and consultant with a big dream — change the world with inclusive & equitable design. This is why I took on the alias Sandra By Design and founded the Inclusive Design Jam and Design Changemakers.

Inclusion and justice work — especially in profit-first environments — isn't easy. But thanks to wisdom and resilience I've built at Google and beyond, I'm defiantly marching forward and uniting with allies along the way.
