Facebook Friend #20 - Sandra
I met Sandra through Warren Ellis in 2004. She lived with me briefly a few years later and has since lived bouncing back and forth between SF, where she met her wife, and Vancouver. In 2016, as part of her 50th birthday celebrations, Sandra decided to drop in for a portrait session. Aside from her work as a mental health advocate, Sandra is also a published author. I'm proud to say she's dedicated a book to me! You can check out some of her work at blueberrio.tumblr.com
