The Conversationalist
Sarah grew up in Philadelphia, in a quaint section of the city that reminds her of an older era, with cobblestone streets and neighbors who seem to know everyone. Sarah is our go-to person if you want to brush up on your understanding of current events, as she’s an avid consumer of the news, and loves discussing a new piece of information she’s learned. She stays active (she’s a former nationally ranked squash player), so you may find her exploring the outdoors – swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, or bike riding. As a hobby, Sarah leverages her curiosity about technology and math to teach herself how to code.
Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts. Winston S. Churchill
