Fun Facts:
1. Sarah used to be a cheerleader.
"I started super young and did it until about high school. I loved cheering and would probably have done it longer if it weren't for music taking up all my time. I discovered playing and writing songs in junior high and I became really obsessed with it, and that's when I started focusing less on cheerleading."

2. Mulan is the fictional character who's inspired her most.
"I was obsessed with Mulan when I was little (and still am). Her character is so empowering! She risked everything for her family and kept going even when she was scared. I watched that movie a lot because I always felt so inspired afterward and I also loved the soundtrack."
