Sarah was originally an elementary school teacher, working in countries such as Australia, China and South Korea. It was during this time she honed her teaching skills and the ability to break down complex topics into digestible bite-sized pieces. In Sarah's experience, consumers can start their path onto financial wellness by using the right tools and a supportive community. Through her experience learning about the banking, insurance, real estate, mortgage and credit industry, she became passionate - just like in her teaching career - to break down complicated jargon in a way that anyone can understand.
