About Sarah

Prior to her service in the United States Army, Sarah taught English to incarcerated juvenile offenders, cared for individuals with developmental disabilities, and advocated on behalf of children in the foster care system. She joined the military upon graduation from law school following in the footsteps of her grandfather, father, mother, sister, and brother. As a judge advocate, Sarah specialized in criminal law, particularly the prosecution and defense of violent and sexually-based offenses. Appointed as one of the first special victim prosecutors Army-wide, Sarah oversaw the investigation and prosecution of several hundred felony level cases to include murder, child sexual abuse and exploitation, and adult rape and sexual assault. Sarah went on to serve as an associate professor of criminal law at The Judge Advocate General‘s School where she taught courses on the investigation, prosecution, and defense of sexually-based offenses as well as the prevention of sexual assault and treatment of victims. Sarah routinely briefed civilian and military leaders, to include members of Congress, senior Army civilians, general officers and commanders, on the military justice system and service regulations and policies related to sexual assault and interpersonal violence.
