  • Sara has been a vegan and/or vegetarian for most of her life, and has been very outspoken about her sobriety and living an alcohol-free lifestyle. She enjoys helping others explore and embrace these dietary preferences.
  • As an avid home baker, Sara is at home wherever there is a KitchenAid and a pie scorer. She grew up baking everything from whoopie pies to apple pies, and has since started developing her own recipes on her Substack, Rhody Bakes.
  • In college, she could be found slinging dough at the local pizzeria, which spawned her self-proclaimed pizza snobbery.
