She joined AutAngel as a member in 2023. Originally from Pittsburgh, Sarah came to Reading by way of Germany. Immigrating twice taught her how to build local community as an outsider.

We aspire to reflect the rich diversity of the autistic population. Although we know we aren’t there yet, we’re working hard on this. However, not all diversity is visible, and our team has representation from the following heritages/communities: LGBTQ+, Jewish and Gypsy Roma Traveller (GRT).
