Grass Roots
Born and raised in Menomonie, WI, Sarah is the 5th generation to have lived there. While pursuing her acting career in the community theater, Sarah (the middle child) also played the role of “mediator” between her siblings while building relationships with others – instinctively polishing the skills needed to succeed at RMPR.

Catch Her If You Can
You can usually spot this busy body filling her extracurricular calendar to the fullest; spending time with her family and friends, downhill skiing, water skiing, playing cards, booking tickets to musicals or recreationally singing. Sarah can also be found on the sidelines at her boyfriend’s cross-country and track meets, and pounding on the plexiglass at her sister’s hockey games.
