Sarah brings music to communities by presenting, performing, teaching, and serving organizations. She uses her platforms to give back to communities and organizations, by serving on board, giving outreach concerts and masterclasses, or creating opportunities for students to access music. Alongside her music and teaching, she enjoys reading historical fiction, hiking, trying new cuisines, going to live concerts of all genres, and going to her pilates reformer studio! 

In 2023, she was honored as a Trailblazing Woman of the Arts by the Martha Graham Dance Company for her leadership contribution in the arts. When attending her masters at Indiana University, Jacobs School of Music, she was awarded an Artistic Excellence Award and the Barbara and David Jacobs Scholarship Fellowship, given to ten students out of the entire entering class. She has won First Place Prize at the Golden Classical Music International Competition, American Protégé International Competition, Upper Midwest Flute Association: Young Artist Competition, and the Rutgers University Honors Chamber Music Competition. She was a finalist for The American Prize Competition: Instrumental Professional Division and the Classics Alive Artists National Competition.

Sarah served as President of the New Jersey Flute Society for four years. During her term, she created the New Jersey Flute Society Scholarship Fund, the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion committee, and the Outreach Program, all hoping to serve flute students in the New Jersey communities. During the beginning of the pandemic, Sarah and the New Jersey Flute Society created a Q&A series designed to help those in need called “NJFS Gives Back.” The Q&A Series interviewed well-known musicians and all proceeds went to a charity chosen by the artists or to a scholarship fund for a student to take flute lessons. A couple of charities that proceeds were donated are God’s Love We Deliver, Children’s Defense Fund, the NAACP, and Girls for Gender Equity.

Sarah is currently the National Flute Association 2024 Convention Assistant Program Chair, and serves on two committees for the National Flute Association. She has also been a member of the board of the Ames Town & Gown Chamber Music Association.
