“Sarah has been with me from the moment I chose my major to the moment I clicked the commitment button. As someone who’s very indecisive, having a mentor like her—honest, experienced, and fully committed—was especially important. Through countless meetings and sincere advice, she helped me to turn a lifelong dream into reality.”
