About
HELLO, I’M SARAH. I'M ORIGINALLY FROM CENTRAL CALIFORNIA BUT FOR THE PAST 7 YEARS I’VE MANAGED TO LOSE MY COOL CALI VIBE AND SOME OF MY SAVINGS TO THE STREETS OF NEW YORK. I'VE HAD A LOVE FOR STORIES FOR A REALLY LONG TIME AND MY PASSION FOR STORYTELLING HAS UNAPOLOGETICALLY FOUND IT’S WAY IN EVERY ASPECT OF MY LIFE. I MAY HAVE GROWN PROFESSIONALLY IN NETWORK NEWS BUT I'VE RECENTLY DECIDED TO TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH AND FREELANCE SO I CAN PRODUCE AND DIRECT MY OWN DOCUMENTARIES. I STUDIED NEWS AND DOC AT NYU, BROADCAST JOURNALISM AT USC, WORKED AT PLACES LIKE VICE, ABC, CNN AND CBS, BUT NOW IT’S TIME FOR ME TO STRUGGLE AS A DOC FILMMAKER LIKE THE REST OF THE PEOPLE I LOOK UP TO. SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME – I’M SECRETLY OBSESSED WITH SINGING COMPETITIONS AND I CAN FALL ASLEEP ALMOST IMMEDIATELY IN ANYTHING THAT MOVES BE IT A CAR, PLANE, BOAT, OR TRAIN. I AM ETHIOPIAN AND BAJAN, THE ONLY CHILD OF AN AMAZING WOMAN AND THE FUTURE OWNER OF A CHOCOLATE LAB.
