Sarah Schmidt

Campus Staff

Sarah grew up in a small town in Texas and graduated from SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) with a BFA in Industrial Design. Focusing on humanitarian needs and solving meaningful problems in her design work, God opened the door to the RUF internship for Sarah to serve at SCAD. After two years as Intern, Sarah was more convinced than ever of the value of  ministry on campus and continues to serve as Campus Staff.  Her favorite parts about living in Savannah are the parks, being close to the ocean and the community.
