As her career in sport came to an end, Sarah found her passion for leadership, personal growth, and the importance of mental health. Sarah graduated with her Leadership Certificate while at Portland, which was just the start.

Currently, as a Mental Skills Coach & Volleyball Coach Sarah has built a large tool box for coaching and training her athletes. Including, becoming a Neuro-Linguistics Programming Master Coach (same methodologies and modalities Tony Robbins uses), Master Practitioner of Integrated TimeLine Therapy, trained International Coaching Federation (ICF) Coach, and trained by John Maxwell on multiple occasions.

Sarah utilizes her passion for athletics and mental health, combined with her past experiences, to coach and train athletes to create a champion mentality. Sarah coaches under the philosophy that it’s not what's on the court or beach that determines an athlete's success, it’s what's going on in between their ears.
