Sarah's love for animals began as a child, when she would cry or even challenge adults she thought were mistreating animals. Her first dog, Muffy, was her constant companion since age seven, and would often come to school with her for "show and tell." This little black poodle was Sarah's pride and joy.

As Sarah became a teenager, she began volunteering at a local vet's office. She observed exams and surgeries, learned how to administer medication, helped with baths and grooming, and provided walks and TLC. She witnessed many serious veterinary undertakings, from happy routine checkups to euthanasia and its associated tears.

College and Early Professional Years
In college, Sarah began volunteering with local and international animal protection groups, including the Great Ape Project, an international organization working to save great apes. Under mentorship of world-renowned scholars, professors and attorneys, Sarah gained a great deal of knowledge and perspective.

Upon graduation from the University of Connecticut, Sarah had a B.A. in Political Science and a job offer from the Great Ape Project. As associate director, she was second in command under the executive director, and during her four years with the organization, she led many organizational and academic projects, and launched several unprecedented online and hard copy initiatives and publications.

A Wide Client Base
Over the years, Sarah's clients have included nonprofit organizations, life coaches, doctors, real estate professionals, sporting goods stores, entrepreneurs with online stores, and others looking to utilize the web to conduct business or further their missions.

Traumatic Times Can Lead to Positive Missions
In 2005, Sarah's best friend golden retriever mix, Cori, lost her vision from glaucoma. This was a traumatic time for both Sarah and Cori, especially in the beginning. After considerable time and re-training, Cori regained her confidence and is living a happy and confident life.

Cori's blindness further deepened Sarah's desire to help dogs in ways that matter to individual dogs as well as wider philosophical ideals.

Shortly after Cori went blind, Sarah founded Cori's Vision, a project to help blind dogs and their human parents readjust. Since the inception of Cori's Vision, Sarah has distributed hundreds of copies of her booklet, The Blind Dog Guide, and has been featured in local newspapers, Dog Fancy Magazine and NBC News.

Love for Dogs + Professional Experience = A Growing Online Series
In 2008, Sarah launched a series of dog friendly websites and blogs designed to promote dog friendly companies, rescues and pro-dog initiatives. Since then, it has grown drastically as companies and rescues continue to climb on board.

Animals have always held a central place in Sarah's life, and she strives to use her training and experience to improve their lives. Dogs – with their remarkable personalities and emotions – remain a key force in Sarah's life and the decisions she makes.
