More Than Stites & Harbison

Before joining Stites, Sarah worked for three years as a medical malpractice and estate planning paralegal in Louisville. At Cornell Law School, she served as a litigation intern with the Transnational Disputes Clinic, where she contributed to arbitration submissions and amicus strategy in cross-border and human rights matters. Born and raised in Louisville, Sarah was delighted to return to the Commonwealth after years of study in New York.

Sarah has volunteered with children’s and animal charities, among them the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana, NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital, the SPCA of Tompkins County, and the Kentucky Humane Society. Outside of practicing law, she enjoys reading fiction, traveling, and hiking with her family.
