She is the author of Mixed Blessing: Embracing the Fullness of Your Multiethnic Identity (IVP, 2020) and Words on a Screen and Blanks on a Page: A Collection of Poetry (Independently Published, 2026). Chandra is also the host of the "vintage" podcast Mixed Blessing: Breaking Bread at the Multiethnic Table.

She enjoys reading, napping, and cheerfully defying stereotypes. Chandra also collects Converse, Funko Pops, memes, and other Millennial things, even though she's actually Gen X. She has one husband, two kids, and a plethora of (far and near) dear friends whom, all together, form her family.
