Sarah started archery as a kid at Girl Scout camp and has loved it ever since. She picked up the sport again when her daughter expressed interest in lessons, and it soon became a mother-daughter bonding activity. Outside of archery, Sarah loves all things Disney, as well as reading and spending time with her family.
