She was a Collaborative Group Intern with Inkululeko and then served as both a Dialogue Facilitator and the Vice President of the GSP Advisory Council during her second year in the program. Since graduating from Michigan, Sara has worked as an English Teaching Assistant through the Fulbright program in Brazil. She plans to pursue a MA in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages with the goal of working with newcomer students in the future.
Sara reflects on her time in GSP, writing that her time in the program inspired her "to work in a diverse workplace and create a supportive community." She writes of the values she learned in GSP: "I currently live abroad and interact daily with people from different backgrounds and cultures. When I return to the US I will be working in a newcomer classroom with refugees and immigrant children. I will practice these values everyday."
