Sarah is a Grand Junction native and Mom to a lower elementary student at Cactus Bloom Community School.  Sarah first learned about Montessori education through her role as Operations Manager for Early Childhood Service Corps, and immediately felt a strong connection with this education path when considering where to enroll her son.

Sarah comes from a background of various Management positions, mainly stemming from her time working at Colorado Mesa University in roles including Staff Assistant, College and Career Advisor and Student Advisor.  An Alumni of CMU, Sarah has a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Management.  Sarah’s role working for the Early Childhood Service Corps opened her eyes to the struggles ECE Sites are facing in finding, training and maintaining staff at their facilities - a strain she felt as a Mom looking for quality childcare for her family.  The added element of ECSC bringing Intergenerational communities together is a passion for Sarah, as she grew up with many positive influences in the form of older adults as a youth.   Sarah is already strongly entrenched in the CBCS community, serving on both the school’s Community Development Team as well as the School Accountability Committee.  This is Sarah’s first time serving on a Board, and she is thrilled to be working with WMPSC as a parent representative for CBCS.
