"Beautiful may be an overused term to describe Pepperdine because of the breathtaking vistas around every corner, but it also describes the diverse and vibrant campus community. Pepperdine is full of an exciting energy and people who are passionate to lead and serve. My college experience has provided me with some of the deepest conversations, friendships, and experiences that have positively impacted my sense of purpose. I have been challenged to ask more questions because of my passion for knowledge, and I have learned what it means to be a part of a community. We all hold ourselves to this higher standard, which leads us to accomplish amazing things, and that is truly beautiful."
Sarah made history at the 2012 London Olympics when she became one of two first-ever women athletes to represent Saudi Arabia in the Olympic games.
