Sandra Sue Smith (Carmen) spent years touring Southern California as the lead of an educational theater show. Multifaceted is the word that fits her best: from her mixed heritage and rural Iowa upbringing to competitive gymnastics and jazz band championships, she has always gravitated toward a challenge.
She went on to double-major in Biology and Theatre, graduated Senior of the Year, and was one of only 12 people accepted into UCLA’s prestigious master’s acting program. Sandra received the Sony/Barbara Streisand Fellowship, later co-starred in the season finale of SEAL Team on CBS, and won Best Actress at the Telly and Digital Health Awards for her work in a Kaiser Permanente web series.
Now she has taken another major leap—leaving the security of touring work to commit fully to stories of hope that are uplifting and redemptive.
