:: About Sandra

Sandra Phillips was born in New York City, and has lived in the United States, Europe and Canada. She has a Bachelor of Arts Cum Laude and a Masters Degree in Art and Education from Queens College of the City University of New York. In teaching art, she has covered everything from high school in New York City to the primary grades in Canada. After having her children, she freelanced in many areas, doing design work and commercial interior decorating, as well as crafts.

The success of her best-selling book, "Smart Shopping Montreal", now in its 11th edition and twenty-sixth printing, has directed the path of her life into interesting twists including her own weekly column in the Montreal Gazette and regular CTV News segments.

Sandra is the Montreal shopping consultant for all the media. She is a frequent guest on phone-in radio shows and appears regularly on television (CTV, Global,, CBC). Calls come in constantly to grant newspaper, magazine and television interviews and to give numerous lectures and tours throughout the year.

In order to be fully informed about lifestyles and trends, she travels extensively, and she writes for newspapers, magazines, e-zines and is a correspondent for travel radio shows.

She is married to Stan, a computer consultant who is now her co-author for Drive I-95: Exit by Exit Info, Maps, History and Trivia. They are the proud parents of three sons, two daughters-in-law and two grandchildren. She credits the volunteer work she performed while raising her kids for expanding her abilities and developing skills which helped enormously when setting up her own publishing business.
