Sarah Chamberlin
Executive Director
Sarah is the parent of two daughters, one with PKU born in 2013. She has a degree in English from Wesleyan University and studied nonprofit management as a Jane Addams Fellow at the Indiana University Center on Philanthropy. Sarah has worked in international human rights and national political advocacy, and created her first web site in 1997 for a small opposition newspaper in Cameroon. She has continued to leverage technology to support advocacy work ever since, eventually founding her own web development firm. When her daughter was diagnosed with PKU, the development of HowMuchPhe.org was inevitable: she reached out to Virginia Schuett to collaborate, and obtained a grant to fund the app, which launched in July 2014. She assumed the directorship of PKU News when Virginia Schuett retired in 2015. She is currently driving the priorities of PKU News to focus on improving patient care and health across all IEM through a whole-health approach aided by technology.
