}}Sandra Bowen is the founder of the thinktank, Colorado Spaces Institute. Previously she was the founding co-publisher of Ahora, the first Spanish-language newspaper in the San Francisco Bay Area. She is an authority on complex quality management systems and a former Vice President at Chase Bank. She also coined the term “user friendly.”[1]

Early life

Bowen was born in Pasadena, California, to parents who were entrepreneurs and designers. Bowen, Inc. produced luxury sports and leisure footwear.

Raised primarily in California and Mexico, she attended both public and private schools. She received her bachelor’s degree in biology from University of California, Los Angeles, where she did undergrad research work in DNA sequencing in Dr. Winston Salzer’s laboratory[2]

While in college, she worked as an assistant to the CEO and Univision and their local television stations in Los Angeles and San Francisco. She helped build the San Francisco station from the ground up and assisted the executive engineer in building the relays between the Los Angeles and San Francisco stations. In addition, she successfully lobbied the San Francisco Chronicle to include Spanish language programming in their TV listings.

Career

Bowen's first job out of high school was assisting editor John Soh on The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau in 1969.

With Leo Kesselman, she created Ahora, the first Spanish-language newspaper in the San Francisco Bay Area around 1978.

While a techwriter at Epson, she coined the term “user friendly” for the Epson QX-10.[3][4][5]

She has also been a Chase Bank vice president in international asset management.

She is an authority, researcher, and thought leader on the ISO 9001. Bowen is an author and editor on ISO 9001 Savvy Executive (ASQ), TickIT Guide,[6][7] and TickIT Journal.[8] Her ISO 9000 work included management and systems transitions at Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, SWIFT, and OCLC.

Colorado Spaces Institute

Colorado Spaces Institute is a think tank founded by Bowen, which serves other nonprofits including the Color Colorado Art Institute.[9] The Institute also has a new program under review with the World Economic Forum.

Color Colorado Art Institute

Colorado Spaces Institute's major initiative is the Color Colorado Arts Institute, an educational program that supports Colorado Parks and Wildlife, which is facing federal budget cuts from Secretary of the Interior, Ryan Zinke.[10] The parks do not receive direct revenue from the state, but from hunting and fishing license fees, which are primarily paid by those in older demographics, thus the need for other programs to support the parks has been noted by the editorial board of The Denver Post.[11] Professional artists provided detailed template images of Colorado landscapes, parks, and wildlife to encourage greater instrastate tourism, since most of Colorado's resident population is concentrated in the Denver/Boulder area. The coloring books include guides to the parks. With professional artists as teachers, the institute teaches serious landscape art classes in public libraries, in both adult and family sessions, the former detailing information about the parks. As Bowen told KOA (AM)'s Ed Greene,[12] the Institute discovered that children enjoyed coloring the complex images, although they would often add their own personal touches, such as dinosaurs, to them.[13][14]

Personal life

Bowen has been married and divorced twice.

As of 2017, Bowen has two grandchildren.

Bowen maintains residences in Colorado and Thailand.
