Storyteller, advocate, creator.

Hi, I’m Sara—I’m a data and graphics reporter at USA TODAY covering healthcare, labor and affordability issues.

I believe storytelling can be a tool for widespread change. From covering the school-to-prison pipeline, to abortion restrictions, to labor strikes, my reporting is rooted in equity. I’m passionate about visual journalism and love using data visualizations to convey my findings. I’m interested in using technology and data to combat misinformation and practice innovative storytelling.
