Sarah completed her Bachelor of Arts at Purdue University in 2006 and received her Juris Doctorate from Indiana University’s Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 2010. Following law school, she moved to Washington and began her legal career in Skagit County, where she quickly established herself as a leader in the legal community. She served as Events Chair for the Skagit County Bar Association for three years and founded the Skagit County Young Lawyers Group, helping to build a stronger network of early-career attorneys.
Sarah was named Volunteer of the Year in 2016 by the Skagit County Volunteer Lawyer Program for her outstanding service to local residents in need of legal assistance. After relocating to Seattle, she became deeply involved with the Washington State Association for Justice (WSAJ), where she has held several leadership roles, including Co-Chair of Women of WSAJ and active member of the Public Affairs and Awards Committees. She is also a renowned national speaker, sharing her insights on trial strategy, advocacy, and leadership in law.
For Sarah, being a personal injury attorney is about restoring balance and dignity to people whose lives have been disrupted by the negligence of others. She finds deep purpose in standing up for those who might otherwise be outmatched by powerful corporations or insurance companies, and she is relentless in pursuing justice on their behalf.
Sarah has developed a strong reputation for litigating large, complex cases involving serious injuries, corporate negligence, and insurance bad faith. Her meticulous preparation, command of the law, and ability to connect with juries have led to significant settlements and verdicts that have made a lasting difference in her clients’ lives.
Her practice is guided by empathy, integrity, and determination — values that drive her to ensure every client feels heard, valued, and powerfully represented from start to finish.
