Sara joined the Innocence Project as the research data coordinator in December 2025. She earned her B.S. in Forensic Psychology and M.S. in Psychology from Arizona State University. Her prior work includes published empirical studies on racial and gender bias in the legal system, police suspicion, and perceptions of implicit bias interventions for jurors. She now draws on these experiences to support research that identifies systemic contributors to wrongful convictions and informs evidence-based reforms.
