Sarah's career started in radio in Springfield, MO in the early 90's. She worked for 7 years as the main anchor at the CBS affiliate in Jefferson City, MO. In 2000, she returned back to her alma mater to work at KOMU.

Sarah has a 1993 Bachelor of Journalism degree from the Missouri School of Journalism.

Sarah is married with two children, three if you count her husband. She enjoys running, collecting African art and practical jokes... not necessarily in that order. In her spare time, she volunteers at a local elementary school and at the Ronald McDonald House Family Room... a special area for families with sick children inside Columbia's University Hospital. |
