Born in Nashville, TN, Sarah’s love for higher education began as a student at Carleton College and continued while earning a Master’s degree at The University of Iowa. She served as a professional higher education administrator and contributed to student development programming for 10 years in Iowa, Georgia, and Wisconsin prior to joining CMC.
