Sandi was born in Virginia Beach and moved to Currituck County with her family in 1984. She attended JP Knapp Junior High School and graduated from Currituck County High School in 1991. In 1992 she moved to Northern Virginia to pursue a career in association management. In 2004, she met her now-husband Chuck Ayres and they eventually moved, with their daughter, Susie, back to Currituck County in 2006.
She began working for an association management company based in Chesapeake in 2006. In 2009, that company created a business center division that Sandi helped build from the ground up. After 14 years with that company, Sandi went out on her own to launch a business center in her hometown of Currituck County.
Sandi is a strong advocate of community service. She is a Girl Scout Leader, serves on the Adult Awards Committee for the Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast, is currently Chairman of Beloved Haven, and serves on the Boards for the Currituck Family YMCA and the Small Business Connect.
Sandi and her family enjoy road trips, fishing, camping, and community service – having served hundreds of meals and providing blankets, hygiene products, and outwear directly to the homeless.
