Find Out MoreSarah's story is deeply rooted in the values of hardworking, small-town America. Growing up in Darien, New York, and attending the Pembroke school system, she learned early on the importance of community, creative expression, and a persistent work ethic. In high school, Sarah’s passions took shape as she played multiple musical instruments, founded an art club, as well as actively engaged in 4-H, Girl Scounts, and team sports. It was during her time playing tri-town soccer in Alexander that she discovered a profound appreciation for the people behind the landscape—a sentiment that has carried with her ever since.
After high school, Sarah pursued higher education at the Rochester Institute of Technology, where she combined her creative talents with a keen business mind. Her initial years in Rochester were marked by a diverse range of experiences. From optimizing business operations at a local chemical company to growing her skillset at various marketing agencies and tech startups, she honed a versatile and innovative approach to her work. Today, as a professional in financial services with Capital One, Sarah brings the same blend of pragmatism and creativity to every challenge she meets.
Beyond her professional accomplishments, Sarah continues to invest in her community with the same passion that first ignited her commitment in Alexander. As a volunteer at the Holland Land Office Museum, an active member of local book clubs, and a participant in the GoArt initiative in Batavia, she nurtures cultural and educational ties among neighbors. Her service on the Alexander Zoning Board further highlights her dedication to uphold the community’s long-term wellbeing—voting in favor of property owners’ rights and resisting short-term projects that could harm the neighborhood’s character.
Living modestly while balancing a demanding career, Sarah remains grounded and budget conscious, fully aware of the value of every hard-earned dollar. She cherishes Alexander not just for its picturesque landscapes, but for the resilient, supportive community that defines it. Sarah’s journey is a testament to the enduring spirit of rural American values—where ingenuity, community dedication, and integrity continue to shape lives and build lasting legacies.
With such a rich tapestry of experiences blending art, education, and service, Sarah continues to inspire those around her.
