Sandie Hea

St Louis is home to her family going back 3 generations of immigrants from Hungary, Germany, and Switzerland. After 3 years at Southeast Missouri University but graduating from the University of Missouri -St Louis she worked in the financial sector for a few years. Growing restless she took an adventurous detour and worked on Clipper Cruise Line which ended in a promotion and a short stint at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. She thought the hospitality industry would be her career, but God had other plans — and His plans are always better. She then began working as an Assistant to a phenomenally successful Realtor in 1986 and eventually broke away and “did her own thing”, launching her real estate business in 1988. Her hobbies are world-wide travel including scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and Costa Rica, a 14-day bicycle tour of New Zealand’s south island, a 10-day bicycle tour of Italy, the thrill of jumping out of an airplane multiple times from 13,000 feet, close up encounters with animals on Safaris in Zimbabwe and Tanzania, and Bungee Jumping over the crocodile-infested Zambezi River near Victoria Falls at age 60! What is next?? She spends her leisure time in Community Bible Study and helping teenagers grow in their knowledge of God’s Word; gardening (not for food lest she starve), dining out and live music with friends or exploring St Louis’s parks with her long-haired miniature dachshund Reagan.
