With a regulatory experience that spans over 20 years, Ms. Sandra L. Setorie started her regulatory career with the Department of Planning & Natural Resources as a Land Use Planner.

She then entered an entirely different realm of governance at the Virgin Islands Public Services Commission as a Complaint Officer.

A few years later, she accepted the responsibility as the agency’s first Assistant Executive Director where she would serve until 2023, when she became the first female Executive Director of the PSC.

As the Executive Director of the PSC, Ms. Setorie has a commitment to strive for excellence in serving and development, leading the agency to produce a positive and significant difference in standards, regulations and technology.

Her vision for her staff is to cultivate the next generation of dynamic influencers and passionate leaders as industry experts.

“If we are not challenged every day on our jobs, then it’s very likely that we haven’t found the right role or are not working to our optimum abilities,” said Director Setorie.
