Sarah has a diverse work history (summer camps, parks and recreation, warehouse management, HR, and technical writing) all of which allow her to understand and communicate with diverse industries, management levels and city officials. Sarah graduated from MSU-Mankato in 2007 with a degree in Recreation, Parks & Leisure Services with an emphasis in Leisure Planning and Management.

Her main passions are centered around community based support, through removing obstacles and creating an environment that is attractive to all who live, work and visit the community. Sarah is thrilled to be able to support rural communities through her position with CEDA.
