In her spare time Dr. Sinks enjoys spending time with her family and reading. She spent her formative years performing on stages all over the world as a singer and still enjoys performing when she can. Her favorite vacation spot is anywhere where she can spend hours hiking with her camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
