  • “I recently attended Sandra's masterclass and highly recommend it for businesses at any stage. She started with business basics and then shared a wealth of actionable tips that would take years to learn through trial and error. Sandra's teaching style is incredible—she’s generous with her knowledge and didn’t hold back when sharing her signature garland formula, color placement techniques, and tips for deciding on detail placements. Even as someone who has been in business for a few years and developed my own style, I left feeling inspired to try things Sandra's way. The hands-on styling portion of the class was a highlight—we got to apply her techniques and receive direct feedback. It’s clear that Sandra truly cares about her students and is passionate about making a lasting impact through her classes. She even makes herself available as an ongoing resource. If you’re looking to level up your skills and gain valuable insights, definitely check out Sandra’s masterclass!

She motivated me into putting my business goals into gear and gave me some great starting points for growing my business. I enjoyed her teaching style and she even provided water and snacks given the class was a little long, greatly appreciated that! Will definitely look into attending another one of her classes and recommending her to my friends! :)
