Then, in 1978, she became Sydney radio's first female newsreader. In 2003 Sandy hosted her own very successful talk-back radio show on Melbourne commercial station 3AK.

Sandy has worked on air and behind the scenes at all five major Australian networks, in roles as diverse as reporter, producer, and researcher,  ... in TV news/current affairs, lifestyle, magazine and variety programs. Her on-air work saw her quickly become established in the Melbourne television scene of the 1980s and 90’s as a personality in her own right.

Recently a magazine editor and feature writer too, today she presents, produces and researches for many US and UK television series and specials.

Equally busy in the corporate world, Sandy writes and presents programs for clients across Australia, including some of the nation's largest corporations. As a voice-over artist, she may be heard on many corporate productions throughout the country.
