Sarah began her teaching career in the New York City public school system, where over 10 years she encountered students with a wide range of learning differences.

A native of the California bay area, Sarah returned to the West Coast in 2017. She continued to be involved in education and began to focus on individualized one-to-one roles with students as well as finding opportunities to assist in teacher education and mentorship.
In her down time, Sarah enjoys spending time with her friends and family, cooking and baking, seeing live music and theater, taking scenic drives, and enjoying new found responsibilities with her mixed-breed rescue puppy.
