Sandra Valencia Copywriter

About me

I’m Sandra. Writer of copy, lover of fun, eater of all things delicious. In the past years, "home" has been many places: California, Mexico, Germany, and Japan.

Culture plays a great role in my background and so it does in my work. Feel free to spy on my life with the handle @sandraavr
