Meet the Family
Meet Sarah
Sarah attended Vanderbilt University where she received a Masters in Public Policy, with an emphasis in education policy. While there, she researched and presented solutions to topics such as K-12 funding, the college student loan crisis, and ways to improve college dropout rates.
She has spent her career working with and being inspired by small business owners and entrepreneurs. She previously worked for the National Federation of Independent Business, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating on behalf of America’s small and independent business owners.
Sarah also trained and educated student entrepreneurs while working for the Center for Entrepreneurship at Belmont University, a Top 25 entrepreneurship program in the United States.
Today, Sarah serves Lieutenant Governor Stavros Anthony’s office as the Director of the Office of Small Business Advocacy as well as the Lieutenant Governor’s senior economic development advisor.
She is actively involved in the Las Vegas community and currently serves on the board of directors for the Lutheran Social Services of Nevada and the Las Vegas Delta Gamma alumni organization. Sarah and Drew also spend their time volunteering with local animal rescue organizations and the Alzheimer’s Association – a group that has been personally meaningful to their family.

Drew and Sarah adopted Nola Mae (named after Drew’s great-grandmother), a beagle/basset mix from a shelter in Nashville.
Nola Loves: Treats with salmon and getting underfoot in the kitchen.
