Author Sarah Welch

Sarah is an investigative journalism graduate student at American University. She covers the Columbia Heights neighborhood for this publication and The Wash. Her interest in foreign affairs and politics drew her to DC, but it has been the local communities in the city that have charmed her. Sarah is a Boston native who has also called Los Angeles, London and Madrid home. When she's not chasing down local and national stories, Sarah enjoys a good book, a strong drink (coffee or otherwise) and cheering on Real Madrid (sorry Barca fans).
