A Colorado Native
It’s not easy to find a real, live Colorado Native! I have no idea why! Jim fell in love with Colorado and got me here, and I loved it enough to stay even after losing him.

Her parents relocated to the Englewood area where she would start 3rd grade. Sara has been very active in sports from an early age-most notably lacrosse. She played lacrosse since 5th grade, into High School and College.
