Princess Sarah has an extraordinary journey that has been featured on CNN, GMA, BBC among numerous other publications worldwide which has trended #1 globally in over 60 countries. She is an internationally known thought leader, TEDx speaker, artist and educator whose work addresses biracial and cultural identity and raises awareness of issues impacting Sierra Leone.

She shared the story of reuniting with her birth father in A Princess Found: An American Family, an African Chiefdom, and the Daughter Who Connected Them All, coauthored with Tracy Trivas and published by St. Martin’s Press. "A Princess Found" is now being adapted into a major motion picture for Disney Studios by award-winning filmmaker Stephanie Allain.

Princess Sarah and her brother founded the non-profit Sierra Leone Rising, which provides clean drinking water, education, medical attention, resources to build schools and technology centers, and more throughout Sierra Leone. Her work in business and technology led her to additional projects, including an animation show with Randy Jackson, a Roblox game to connect and educate children about cultures around the world and an effort to bring cryptocurrency to the underbanked.
