About

After graduating from Taylor in 1993, Sara taught high school English and journalism for 16 years and served as a TU adjunct instructor for six years. Since all members of her household are TU grads (husband Lance '90, sons Ian '25 and Owen '26), she enjoys keeping alumni informed and connected and helping current parents feel supported. One of her favorite parts of working on campus is seeing students embrace the activities of this unique community as well as listening to alumni tell stories—many of them about those same Taylor traditions. Sara loves running, yoga, conversations over coffee, and attending live theater as much as possible. She and her husband, Lance, live in Greentown.

Responsibilities

Providing information for and building relationships with Taylor alumni and parents, maintaining communication and planning events that keep these groups connected to one another and the University.
