When she isn’t working to fight diet culture with her clients, Sarah enjoys connecting with nature through camping and hiking in the great outdoors with her partner. Give her a good book, a tasty snack, a hammock by a body of water, the chirping of birds, and you’ve got yourself one “happy camper.” One of Sarah’s bucket list items is to visit all 59 National Parks!
