Sara received her undergraduate degree from the University of Denver, where she triple-majored in Political Science, International Studies, and Psychology. She earned her Juris Doctorate from Creighton University School of Law in Omaha, Nebraska, graduating in 2011. During law school, she developed a deep interest in child advocacy, which led her to a legal fellowship at the National Association of Counsel for Children following graduation.
Sara began her legal career as a Guardian ad Litem, representing children in dependency and neglect cases in Colorado Springs, Colorado. After marrying her husband, who was then serving as an active-duty infantry Army officer, Sara shifted her practice to support military personnel. She represented soldiers navigating medical separations from the Army and later worked as a decisions writer for the Board of Veterans’ Appeals.
After her husband transitioned out of the military, Sara and her family settled permanently in Seattle, where she returned to her original passion—family law. Her background advocating for children and working with military families has given her a unique perspective and a compassionate approach to legal practice.
Sara is a strong advocate who prioritizes empowering her clients. She combines years of litigation and negotiation experience with a deep understanding of family law. Her empathetic approach and active listening allow her to tailor strategies to each client’s specific needs and goals.
Sara was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. In her free time, she enjoys reading in local coffee shops, walking her dog around Green Lake, and soaking up Seattle’s summer sunshine. She has been married for 10 years, and she and her husband have a young daughter who is the light of their lives.
