About
Sarah graduated from the Community College of the Air Force in Montgomery, Alabama, with an Associates in Applied Science in Mental Health Services in 2013. She then went on to receive her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Indiana University in South Bend, Indiana. Most recently, she graduated with her Master of Science in Nursing, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, in December 2019.
“Working in the Air Force, I saw a great need for mental health care,” she said. “I love the idea of working with people who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.”
From the beginning, Sarah has been a part of the Beacon family. She started working at Elkhart General Hospital as a Patient Care Assistant, and then went on to work at Epworth Hospital when she became an RN.
“The management and the people really solidified my choice to stay at Beacon,” she said. “The staff are the absolute best.”
Now, you can find Sarah practicing at Beacon Medical Group Behavioral Medicine, where her philosophy is to treat the patient as a whole, not just a diagnosis. She hopes that her patients learn that she wants to be a part of their treatment team and work alongside them.
In Her Own Words
Who is or was the most influential person/role model in your life?
My older brothers both had a really big impact on me growing up and even now.
What was your first job growing up? What do you remember about it?
I worked for Allstate Insurance as a secretary. I learned a lot about organization, time management, and professionalism within an office.
What is your favorite food? Movie?
My favorite foods are sandwiches and friend rice; my favorite movie is ‘Now and Then.’
What were your best/worst subjects in school growing up?
My worst class was math and my best class was English.
If you could sit down to dinner with anyone (alive or deceased) who would it be and why?
I would sit down with either Dr. Seuss or Billy Joel. Dr. Seuss because his books have been a huge part of my life and I would love to hear how he came up with so many wonderful and creative stories. Billy Joel because I listened to his music growing up, and the songs keep me connected with my dad.
In addition to medicine, what are you passionate about?
I am passionate about cooking (not baking) and animals.
What are your hobbies?
I love anything to do outside; camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, kayaking.
Do you have any pets?
I have two cats, Gizmo and Dot. I also have three dogs: Ruger, Remi, and Molly.
What is something most people don’t know about you?
Most people aren’t aware that I was a rodeo queen that grew up in Idaho.
