About Me

Hi! My name is Sarah White, and I’m glad you’re here. I am a Christian, an Eagle Scout, a daughter, a communicator, an artist, a patriotic American, a student, and a friend.

“Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet.”

Early Inspirations…

I was born and raised in southwestern Pennsylvania, surrounded by the rolling foothills, close-knit communities, and strong family values that continue to shape my creative perspective today. Growing up in a lively and loving household taught me the importance of curiosity, connection, and storytelling.

Art and exploration have always been second nature to me. I have been drawing since I could hold a crayon and observing the world around me with equal fascination. Raised in an environment that encouraged thoughtful discussion, creativity, and lifelong learning, I developed a deep appreciation for both artistic expression and critical thinking. These values continue to influence my work today.

A Foundation of Curiosity & Involvement

Throughout my life, I have been deeply involved in a wide range of creative, athletic, and leadership activities. From ballet, soccer, swimming, and volleyball to cross country and track, athletics taught me discipline, teamwork, and resilience from an early age.

Music became another defining part of my upbringing. Beginning with flute in elementary school, I continued performing throughout high school while expanding into piccolo, tuba, and bassoon. Beyond athletics and music, I remained actively involved in student leadership, musical theatre, and extracurricular organizations. I gained leadership experience through founding my school’s cosmetology club and serving as head publisher for the school magazine.

These experiences shaped me into an adaptable and well-rounded creative with a passion for learning, collaboration, and continuous growth. Whether in artistic, academic, or professional spaces, I value the opportunity to explore new perspectives and develop new skills.

Leadership through Scouting

My experience with Scouts BSA played a defining role in shaping both my character and leadership style. Joining the program at age fourteen as part of one of the earliest generations of female scouts, I later became a member of the inaugural class of female Eagle Scouts shortly before my eighteenth birthday.

Through scouting, I developed resilience, adaptability, and confidence in unfamiliar environments. The program challenged me to think critically under pressure, collaborate with diverse groups of people, and lead effectively in unpredictable situations. More importantly, it reinforced the value of perseverance, service, and trusting my ability to navigate challenges with determination and composure.

Go Touch Grass!

Spending time outdoors has always been an important part of my life and creative balance. Whether hiking, skiing, running, or simply exploring new places, I value the opportunity to disconnect from constant noise and reconnect with the world around me.

Nature provides a sense of perspective and stillness that deeply influences both my creativity and overall well-being. Time spent outside allows me to reflect, recharge, and return to my work with greater clarity, gratitude, and intention.

Modeling

Through runway and editorial work, I learned how to maintain composure under pressure, respond constructively to feedback, and meet the expectations of clients and production teams. The experience strengthened both my professionalism and my appreciation for the collaborative process behind visual storytelling and design.

What began as an unexpected experience during my freshman year at Liberty University quickly became an important part of my creative and professional growth. Over the years, modeling has given me the opportunity to collaborate within fast-paced creative environments while developing confidence, adaptability, and strong presentation skills.

The Great American West

Working at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico became one of the most transformative experiences of my life. Across two summers spent in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, I fell deeply in love with the landscapes, traditions, and storytelling woven throughout the American West.

The experience challenged me physically, creatively, and personally. Teaching western skills and history, leading youth programming, and navigating the unpredictability of ranch life taught me resilience, adaptability, and confidence under pressure. More importantly, it gave me a profound appreciation for heritage, craftsmanship, and the enduring spirit of the West.
