About me
Sara’s journey into the museum world is as non-traditional as it is visionary. After moving to New Jersey in 2016, the mother of two quickly realized something vital was missing: a world-class space dedicated to children’s curiosity and growth. Drawing on a distinguished 15-year career in public service with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the EPA, Sara is now channeling her background as an Environmental Scientist, and passion for creative problem-solving and hands-on learning into a new mission: establishing New Jersey's first children's museum, MOMI (The Museum of Makers and Innovators). As New Jersey's pioneer children's museum, MOMI aims to foster curiosity, creative problem-solving, and sustainable innovation in the next generation.She remains deeply passionate about the intersection of art, history, science and creativity, seeking to spark those transformative “aha!” moments for every visitor. With a Bachelor’s from Western Washington University and a Master’s in Environmental Toxicology from Duke University, Sara is dedicated to building a creative place for families where imaginations run wild and possibilities are truly endless.
