Sarah is from Cincinnati, Ohio. She earned her Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018. Sarah moved to Cluj-Napoca in 2019, Romania after a 9 year relationship with short term mission work in various regions of the country.
Sarah works with an organization called Alfa Grup, ministering to the orphan population in Cluj and its surrounding villages. Sarah brings mental health skills and a passion for mental, emotional, and identity health to ministry. Although much of the day in and day out dreams and goals of counseling rely heavily on a depth of Romanian language mastering, Sarah spends her time building relationships and practicing her language skills with the youth and adults she is able to work with.
Sarah is also working alongside the Way of Faith United Methodist Church, a church in its early phases, helping to provide history of the UMC globally, form vision and mission goals for the church, and helping to be a liaison for the partnership between the church and Alfa Grup.
