Along with a number of smaller projects in Arkansas, Sarah worked with Wellstone Action, a nonprofit based in St. Paul Minnesota with a mission to ignite leadership in people and power in communities to win change. Sarah has also done union organizing, and other campaign work, all over the country.
She, along with her wife and young daughter, resides in North Little Rock, Arkansas when not on the road agitating for progressive change.
