After graduating from both college and the Young Rider program at the age of twenty one, Sarah continued to compete numerous horses at the FEI levels, as well as began developing young horses for an esteemed warmblood breeder in California. In 2015 and 2016 Sarah successfully competed in back to back seasons in Wellington, Florida at the world renowned Winter Equestrian Festival, under USEF coach Scott Hassler. 

In 2017, Sarah and her husband moved back to the West Coast, and in 2018 and 2020 Sarah syndicated two exciting young horses for her lineup: 2015 KWPN gelding Kanjer TC and 2016 KWPN Liang. Both young horses are showing tremendous promise for the upper levels, having outstanding gaits and top rideability. With her current FEI competition horse, Fuerst Domiro, Sarah is now competing successfully at the Small Tour Level and schooling all of the Grand Prix at home.
