Working with Sarah

About Sarah

I am a Long Beach native and currently live in the East Hollywood/Thai Town area with my very rambunctious and adorable cat, Frankie. My hobbies outside of work include reading (fiction and nonfiction alike!), yoga, pilates, going on walks/hikes, playing too much Stardew Valley, and trying new restaurants and fun coffee shops.
