Sarah has called Alaska home for the past 23 years and has been proud to grow her career with Camp Fire Alaska since 2013. She began her journey with the organization as Program Staff and has since held a variety of roles that have deepened her connection to Camp Fire Alaska's mission and community. For eight years, she served as the Site Director at Alpenglow Elementary, leading programming and supporting youth development in a hands-on capacity. In 2023, she transitioned to the Human Resources team as the Recruitment Manager, where she now focuses on bringing passionate, dedicated individuals into the Camp Fire Alaska family. She’s excited to help build strong teams that empower youth and strengthen Camp Fire’s impact across Alaska.
Outside of work, she loves getting outdoors and soaking in the natural beauty of Alaska. Whether it’s running, cross-country skiing, camping, or exploring new trails, she enjoys staying active and spending quality time with family, friends and her husky, Gemma!
