a little bit about sarah:

hello! i am an aspiring physician-scientist who loves fruit, soccer, dogs, watching Disney Pixar movies, painting, taking pictures, building community, and connecting with others.

Sarah in gray raincoat performing a handstand on grassy hill with cloudy skies, mountains, and trees in the background.
Sarah under a tree wearing a blue shirt and a grey cap that reads "tomorrow needs you", with green branches obscuring part of the face, standing on rocky ground.

especially hiking in the mountains! i have lived most of my life in states on the east coast, so hiking in shenandoah national park and great smokey mountain national park always feels like coming home <3

i LOVE spending time outside,

while finding a new normal after brain injury, i have found great joy in jogging. i definitely do not move fast, but i am constantly reminded that

and the opportunity to move forward is something i am very grateful for

forward is a pace,
