Why I Believe in the Mission of CCHCI
Growing up in a rural community and now living in one as an adult, I value Chiricahua’s mission to provide “Health for All.” This mission means ensuring that everyone has access to affordable, quality, and compassionate healthcare, including those living in remote areas of Cochise County. I appreciate that Chiricahua actively reaches individuals who might not otherwise receive these essential services.
Background & Experience
Sarah was born and raised in Springerville, Arizona, where she discovered her passion for pharmacy while working as a cashier at a local pharmacy. During that time, she also completed her associate degree while still in high school.
She later moved to Tucson to continue her education at the University of Arizona before being accepted into the College of Pharmacy.
After completing her pharmacy training, Sarah chose to return to a rural community setting, eventually settling in Cochise County. She was drawn to Chiricahua because of its commitment to community-focused care and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on patients’ lives.
