While working in Missouri, Sarah met and married Chris Herzog. They were co-anchors there and are co-anchors again on WEAU 13 News at Ten.
When Sarah's not at work, she enjoys visiting friends and family, taking scenic drives, reading and fishing. She and Chris have taken on the challenges of updating their first home as well. This year they're focusing on getting flowers to grow and hope to fit in some fishing!
