Sarah Sheehan, MAT

Personal Finance Experience

Before finding her way to finance, Sarah taught in public and language schools in Georgia and Virginia. Despite having a stable salary, her long-term financial outlook seemed rather bleak—and she just couldn’t accept that.

Sarah turned to freelance finance writing to supplement her income and scratch a growing entrepreneurial itch. She soon specialized in writing about how taxes, retirement planning, and debt affect us on scales small and large. Now, she’s an in-house writer for LendEDU, where she continues the important work of making realistic financial education accessible and actionable for the people who need it most.
