Sandy Orchard was born and raised in Oklahoma City. She graduated from Point Loma College in San Diego with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. As a young child, reading National Geographic, she was intrigued by different countries and cultures. At the young age of 17 years, she began going on mission trips with her first trip to Guatemala. For the next 16 years, she traveled and experienced the different countries and cultures that she had previously only read about as a child. Throughout the following years, she continued going on mission trips with a 3-year commitment on a hospital ship. She has been to numerous countries around the world, witnessing miracles through both medicine and healings. Her current work with No Boundaries International includes not only her medical work but also video production, website work, graphic arts work, and writing.
