Sara Dowler is an amateur baker, crocheter, and crafter from Columbus, Ohio. After earning her degree in English literature from Ohio University, she left “the heart of it all” for ocean air and further education, receiving a master’s degree in children’s literature from Simmons University in 2023. Sara often finds herself living in chaos; while pursuing these degrees, she embraced it in order to gain professional experience in early childhood education, editing, and publishing. When she isn’t reading Ella Enchanted (again) or thinking about children’s books, she can be found exploring Boston with friends, chatting with her cousins, or discovering new snacks at the nearest Trader Joe’s.
