Growing up in rural Wisconsin during the week and Minneapolis on the weekend allowed Sarah the perspective that people lived life very differently from one another. This “city mouse country mouse” existence provided a unique lens for commentary and brought out the natural storyteller in Sarah. A ten-year stint as a blackjack dealer gave Sarah a captive audience to hone her comedy chops. One day she looked at the smoke-filled walls and noisy slot machines and said goodbye. She turned in her apron and decided to bet on herself and become a comedian. At the same time, she decided to pursue this dream she also decided to pursue her dream of being a lesbian. “Go for broke,” as they say.
