Born and raised in Wellington, New Zealand Sarah went on to study Classics and Anthropology at Victoria University of Wellington. When this (not so surprisingly) didn’t eventuate into thousands of high paying job offers, she took to travelling the globe. After wandering her way across 37 countries she returned home to NZ to study early childhood education, but her heart pulled her back to Kenya (the favourite of said 37 countries). She took her teaching with her and taught in a school at an orphanage in Nakuru for a year.

She always loved to write, and when she returned home to NZ decided it was high time to stop wanting to be a writer and put pen to paper and actually be a writer.

She is currently living in Wellington where she teaches under two’s (who are beyond adorable and keep her very much on her toes), drinks a lot of coffee, and spends time with her wonderful family and friends.
