Sarah Sykes epitomizes what it means to be a Best Buddies Connecticut Champion. Hers is the longest and one of the most heartwarming histories with Best Buddies. 18 years ago, Best Buddies turned Sarah's world around, giving her purpose, friendships, and making her life worthwhile. She became her high school chapter's president, and in college, she founded one of the first Best Buddies chapters in Kentucky. Upon her return to Connecticut, Sarah registered for the Citizens Program and was matched with Maya, her Champion partner and true best buddy. Her Best Buddies experiences lit her path, empowering her to become a special education teacher.

Sarah's passions for those with special needs also extends to her pets. She is the proud puppy-mom of Saffron, a nine-year-old rescue that seems to be an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix and Sage, a deaf, eight-month-old recue pup, most likely a Catahoula Leopard mix.
