Sheri Blank is fascinating with a unique journey. Originally from New York, she relocated to California just before her 16th birthday. Currently teaching first and second grade at a French school, Sheri's path took an unexpected turn from her initial dream of becoming a doctor at UCLA. Inspired by a profound interest in child psychology, she pursued a bachelor's degree in psychology with a specialization in child development. Sheri's love for game shows, particularly Wheel of Fortune, traces back to cherished moments with her grandmother, a jeweler from Czechoslovakia. Encouraged by her grandmother's belief in her puzzle-solving skills, Sheri took the plunge and applied for the show in 2015. After a rigorous audition process, she secured her spot as a contestant, declining an alternate role. Taping in September 2015, Sheri emerged victorious on Wheel of Fortune, winning over $100,000. Her advice for aspiring contestants is simple yet profound: approach the experience with an open mind, enjoy the journey, and don't let the test intimidate you. Sheri emphasizes that even if things don't unfold exactly as planned on the show, the experience itself is a victory.
