Sandy also competed at a National Level in Gymnastics alongside her formal training in singing and dance, and as she grew, became the triple threat with Singing, Dancing and Acting.

After the death of her Mother at just 11 years old, Sandy went through a challenging time and used her performance in theatre to hide what was going on in her home life. At age 18, she moved from the North East of England to work for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London after her step-parents advised her to “get a proper job”. Sandy used this move to follow her dream and continued performing including some top stages on the West End in London such as the London Palladium.

Sandy initially joined a Wedding/function/show band after being coaxed into auditioning and was their lead singer which reignited the passion for performing live. Alongside this, she quickly became the “voice” and was asked to perform solo in different venues from public to private, intimate sized venues to large Corporate Venues.   Her solo career has since leapt forward, more rapidly then she could have ever imagined,  and with over 800 songs currently in her repertoire has the ability to adapt to most styles.  These include Rock to Opera, Cheesy Pop to Disco, Swing & Jazz, Musical Theatre to Showstoppers.
