Overview

Sarah focuses on real estate law, primarily in the renewable energy sector.

Prior to pursuing a legal career, Sarah earned a master’s degree in Energy and Earth Resources and worked as a carbon capture and sequestration researcher, which required extensive knowledge on all forms of energy. This technical background allows her to approach issues from both a legal and scientific perspective, especially in the area of carbon capture. In fact, her decision to attend law school was driven partly by her observations during her time as a geoscientist that there was a great need for legal professionals with technical and scientific backgrounds in energy.

As a law student, Sarah took every energy law class available and served as the Recent Developments Editor for the Texas Journal of Oil, Gas, and Energy Law. She also discovered a fascination with property and worked with a property/energy professor during her first summer, further solidifying her interest in the renewables sector. Sarah also spent a summer as a summer associate at Husch Blackwell, working primarily on energy-related topics with the Real Estate & Development and Energy Regulatory teams.

Known for her research capabilities and technical background, Sarah is highly knowledgeable and efficient. Her unique blend of legal and scientific experience makes her a valuable asset in the field of energy law.
