edit data

Sandra J. Jackson was born in Montreal, Quebec but now lives in a rural setting in Eastern Ontario with her husband.

A graduate of a 3-year Graphic Design program, being creative has always been Sandra’s passion. Over the years she has enjoyed creating works of art for her family and friends.

Sandra has five published works (four of which are also available as audiobooks) w ...more
