Hi there! My name is Sandra. I was fortunate enough to have been born in Prague, a beautiful city in the heart of Europe, at a very peculiar time in history: just around the time of the Velvet Revolution and the fall of Communism. During my teenage years I had a unique opportunity to witness the economic transformation of Czechoslovakia into a capitalist country and a member of the European Union. Since 2005 I have lived in the U.K., Canada and for 5+ years in the U.S., where I completed a degree in Economics. As a result, I'm bilingual in English and Czech and am also fluent in French. My early college years were spent in Prague studying Linguistics and Education, during which I came to appreciate the great classics of literature, philosophy and art history. Later, fascinated by the various forms of organization I observed in social life, I decided to shift my focus and pursue studies in Economics in a ongoing quest that has yet to satisfy my hunger for understanding world issues on a global scale.
