3 Words to Describe You: Witty, competitive and athletic.

If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? A Bible - I’ve always wanted to read the entire Bible. I’m a slow reader, so I would be entertained for quite a while; a toothbrush; and a Surf board - Why not? I’m easily entertained, I don’t need much.

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I’m one of a kind. If I had to pick I’d say Malcom. He’s nice, but very strategic and tasteful about it.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I am never satisfied with what I’ve done. I always add things to my plate. The challenge, experience and opportunity would be gratifying. Second reason: Duh, the money.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I’m from the Midwest, cornfed! I’m a hard worker. I don’t give up. I motivate people. I learn quickly and I am a master manipulator.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I have the brains and skills to dominate this game. I’m very strategic and determined. I interview people on a daily basis and get confessions. I will destroy this game.

'''Do You Consider Yourself a Brain, a Beauty or a Brawn? '''I would consider myself Brain and Brawn. I think I will do very well on the puzzles and dominate the physical challenges.

'''Who Do You Think Has the Best Chance in the Game of Survivor: Brains, Beauty or Brawn? '''I think a combination of all three characteristics would produce a winning Survivor.

Survivor: Cagayan
Sarah was placed on Aparri the Brawns tribe of Survivor: Cagayan. While in the woods, Sarah looked other police officer Tony Vlachos in the eyes and asked if he was a cop and he lied and said no. She told him she could tell because she's a cop. Soon after he told her that he was a cop and they bonded and formed an alliance called Cops-R-Us. Tony lied to Sarah saying that Cliff Robinson and Lindsey Ogle were gunning for her. Tony and Sarah convinced Woo Hwang and Trish Hegarty to come into their alliance and throw the challenge to vote Cliff out and then Lindsey but Cliff won them the challenge. The Brawns tribe ceased to lose always in victory. At the team swap all the Aparri members other than Sarah were put on the team Solana and Sarah remained on Aparri.

Sarah was thrilled when Jeff Probst told her tribe that Cliff and Lindsey had both been eliminated. When the Aparri tribe lost the challenge, Tony on the Solana tribe yelled "Top 5" which made Sarah feel excluded. Then came the merge where Sarah was the swing vote for both tribes. At first Sarah wanted to stick with the new Aparri tribe but Kass McQuillen questioned her loyalty which made Sarah feel insecure. Tony tried to make Sarah swear to side back with his alliance which she couldn't yet. Sarah became the swing vote. Kass continued to argue with Sarah which Trish saw as an opportunity. Kass and Tasha Fox asked Sarah if she was willing to send home Trish or Jefra Bland, which Sarah refused. Sarah would rather target a strong male who could possibly have an idol such as Tony or LJ McKanas. Trish and Tony realized that Sarah was no longer on their side. Trish went to talk to Kass to convince her to go with her alliance's votes.

All of the new Aparri voted Jefra while all of the new Solana voted Sarah. Kass flipped on her alliance and voted for Sarah sending her home as the first jury member and in 11th place.
