Sarah is a California native, born and raised near the beach in Santa Cruz. She completed her undergraduate studies at UC Santa Barbara and her Master’s of Science in Nursing at UCSF, where she became certified as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with a minor in Adolescent Health Care.

She has worked as an RN in Pediatric Oncology at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in San Francisco and as a PNP at Chappell Hayes Center Health at McClymonds High (UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland). Although she treated many patients at Chapell Hayes for sprains, strep, and sports physicals, she was surprised by how many students came in for Psychosocial issues. She became increasingly interested in the impact mental health had on adolescents’ well-being and later returned to UCSF to continue her studies in this area. She is now dual-certified in both Pediatrics and Psychiatry/Mental Health and is passionate about working to normalize mental health care for children and adolescents. She is thrilled to be joining Tamalpais Pediatrics and the Behavioral Health Team.

Sarah is married and lives in Marin with two dogs and two children. She loves hiking, traveling, reading, cooking and spending time with friends and family. She is also trying, without much success, to improve her Pickleball and Mahjong skills.
