Personal

When she’s not at work, Sarah can be found reading fiction, playing in a recreational volleyball league or spending time outside with her husband and their son. She spends as much time as possible at her family’s lake home in northern Michigan during the summer months. Sarah and her husband are big ‘DIY’ people and enthusiastic travelers – they love being active and always have a few projects in the works.
