Sandra Agate is a designer and artist with a lifetime of experience in the creative arts. At five years old, she began learning from her artist mother and later pursued a degree in Art and Design from Hartwick College. After graduating, she worked in the package design industry before founding her own successful design business. Originally, Sandra planned to pursue a nursing degree due to her strong desire to help others, but her love of art ultimately led her in a different direction. Later in life, after her children were grown, she combined her passion for art and helping others by becoming an Art Therapy Practitioner and founding Agate Therapeutic Arts.
