Sarah is an award-winning director and screenwriter with selections in over a hundred festivals and won several awards for her short films and feature screenplays.

In 2023, she sold her first screenplay and is contracted to direct her feature debut, Window in the Wood, which addresses the theme of trauma. This was all due to her recent success with her short film, VIOLAR. Additionally, she has written and directed a Human Trafficking 101 Training Course for United Abolitionists.

After experiencing six years in a church cult, she faced incredible trauma and psychological abuse. Through her understanding of human trafficking, she learned more about what she went through with manipulation and psychological control. This has taught her about the meaning of strength and created a desire for her to give a voice to those who have been silenced and whose dreams have been stolen. She spent years studying human trafficking through shadowing and interviewing human trafficking organizations and survivors.

She is passionate about exploring topics in Spiritual/Cult Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Human Trafficking, Foster Care, Suicide, PTSD, and Narcissistic Abuse.
