Hello! My name is Sarah Wainschel and I’m the newest intern in the Great Shape! and Let It Shine Community. I am beyond excited to join the team and can’t wait to start promoting Great Shape! through social media, fundraising events and public relations.

I’m a born and raised California girl who somehow found her way to the beautiful city of Spokane, Washington. There’s nothing I love more than a Spokane spring followed by a beautiful California summer. I’m a current junior at Gonzaga University and am working toward a degree in public relations with a minor in advertising. I fell in love with the communications field after my very first semester at Gonzaga and haven’t looked back since! I interned at Spokane HOPE School this past semester and hope to continue helping those in need through my work with Great Shape! and Let It Shine.

Some of my biggest passions in life include writing about anything and everything, reading great books, taking the occasional dance class, and drinking way too much coffee. I also caught a bit of a travel bug after studying abroad in Florence, Italy this past fall. My time abroad opened my eyes to the different cultures, customs and needs of people around the world, which makes me even more excited to work with Great Shape! and help serve the people of Jamaica.

I’m so thrilled to start this journey with Great Shape! and can’t wait to see where it takes me!
