Sarah Young, M.A.

Originally from Chicago, USA, Sarah earned her bachelor’s degree in Comparative Human Development from the University of Chicago and her master’s degree in Philosophy and Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Her thesis discussed the role of aesthetic experiences in cultivating a care ethic for the Earth.

Sarah has spent her career working in education across a variety of roles including as a teacher, academic tutor, curriculum designer, education team manager at nonprofits, and college admissions counselor and essay coach. Having studied in Bolivia, Rome, and Paris herself, Sarah is passionate about the transformative potential of educational experiences that expose students to enriching and diverse unfamiliar environments.

After years of living in Prague, Sarah is excited to be leveraging her skills to help students access the sort of international educational opportunities she found so impactful in her own academic journey. She is happy to connect via email or a call to discuss admissions at AAU.
