- Sarah got to try out the PS5 when it was sold out everywhere at launch because she reviewed it for a website and wrote a bunch of articles on it.
- With the amount of smart home tech Sarah has in her possession, her home is bound to be the smartest in the neighborhood.
- Sarah has been able to embrace the digital nomad lifestyle through freelance writing, allowing her to travel to Seattle, Denver, Portland, and even Berlin, Germany — all while working from a laptop.
Experience
Since April 2020, Sarah has been freelance writing for various websites, covering smart home technology, ebikes and other motorized devices, video games, and smart fitness equipment. She started writing with Android Authority and a niche gaming blog, and then moved on to write for MakeUseOf, Review Geek, Laptop Mag, and, of course, SlashGear. During her career, she has written original articles, worked on personal creative writing projects, and tested out multiple cool items for reviews. From getting to play with an arcade machine to cruising down the sidewalk on an electric skateboard, Sarah's job is pretty cool.
Education
Sarah earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English with a creative writing concentration.
