Sarah started her construction experience in her middle school years working as a laborer on multi-million dollar custom homes during the summer. Every summer she increased her skills, moving into a carpenter’s helper role throughout high school. After graduating from high school, Sarah gained knowledge running construction equipment such as the one-ton delivery trucks, skid steer bobcats, backhoe, forklifts, compactors, as well as surveying equipment and techniques. Sarah majored in construction management at Colorado State University, earning many honors for her academic performance. During her time in college, she served an internship with a radon mitigation firm, actively mitigating radon from many different homes in and around the Fort Collins area. For the past several years, Sarah has bid and developed construction schedules using specific construction software, created floor plans for remodel projects, participated in negotiations and meeting with subcontractors and customers. As a current LEED-AP BD+C, Sarah works with clients to make sure they are offered the most in sustainability. • Navigator Award - Young Professional of the Year, 2014• Certified with OSHA 10-Hour Training, 2014• Appointed to the Economic Development Council, 2008-present, Chair 2013-2015• Active Member of Yampa Valley Construction Trades Association, 2005-Present• Member of the Board of Realtors Affiliate Partnership Council, 2010 to present • YVSC Green Building Committee Chairperson, 2010 to 2012• City of Steamboat Springs Planning Commission, January 2008-February 2010• Secretary & Founding Board member of Yampa Valley Sustainability Council, 2007 to 2010, Treasurer of YVSC from 2010-present• Chairman and Co-Founder of Steamboat Springs “Talking Green”, 2007-2011• Committee member for the Steamboat Sustainable Business Certification Program, 2007 • Organized 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th Green Home Tour in Steamboat Springs, Spring/Fall 2007-2009
