Hi! I’m Sarah. I believe creativity is an act of rebellion. It’s saying “yes” to what feels risky, real, and deeply your own. That’s the energy behind Rock Your Story. This is a space where we use writing, storytelling, and visual expression to break rules, push boundaries, and create something true.
With a Ph.D. in American Studies and years of teaching about identity and culture, I’ve seen how storytelling cracks us open and connects us. Whether you’re helping a child find their creative spark or reclaiming your own voice, my workshops and materials are here to help you step boldly into your story—and rock it.

RYS workshops are regularly offered on various topics relevant to storytelling in different ways. Please see the schedule for more information.

July 5, 2026 In 1993, a stormy young Kathleen Hanna bounced on a small stage, holding a corded microphone pressed up against her mouth to create the same distorted effect made by the other band members and their respective instruments. She screamed, “rebel girl…! rebel girl…!” to a room full of sweating and vibrant riot…

In America, we are just moments away from the chorus of children’s voices expressing their total and all-consuming boredom when there is “nothing to do” over summer break.
