Sandra Redak, Editorial Editor

Sandra Redak is an editorials editor at Boulder High; she’s a senior terrified and ecstatic about graduating. She loves spending time with her friends and family. She curses difficult decisions and is torn between becoming a spiritual master like the sexy beach man from Spongebob and becoming a badass military general in the Air Force. She is most grateful for her knees still working despite the abuse she’s put them through playing tennis. She has a strong, passionate relationship with all food, her favorite being her grandma’s mole. She hopes to live her teenage years to the fullest without going to jail. As for the grapes, she loves all grapes, but biting into a purple grape and finding a seed is betrayal on par with adultery, so it’s gotta be green.
