Sarah’s program of study is occupational safety and health at the University of Alaska Anchorage. She says, “Providing the workers in my community with the necessary skills and training to go home healthy to their friends and family is very rewarding.” Sarah accepted a position with a regional airline to begin after completing her program. She also plans to work toward her bachelor’s degree.

Sarah’s best study tip? “Literally write everything down!” Outside of school, Sarah enjoys hiking and fishing. She also adds, “My family is expecting our first child in February! We are very excited.”

Of her MSHF scholarship, Sarah says, “Without the MSHF Scholarship, I would not have been able to complete my associate degree. It is an amazing program for the community and I am very grateful to have been apart of it!”
