About
Aloha! I am Sarah Solomon, a Doctoral Candidate, Mom of 4, Professor, and Founder of First Love Sports a 501 (c)3 Non Profit. One might say I have a lot going on, but I am just a passionate person who intends to make a positive impact in the world, and leave a legacy for my children that life is measured through what you contribute, not take. I am a passionate sports leader, and have spent my whole life breaking gender stereotypes in sports as an athlete, coach, leader, mom, and now professor. It is my life's mission to utilize the culmination of my experience, education, passion and talents to encourage racial, gender, and socioeconomic equity in youth sports through my Non-Profit and using my platform as a professor to provide a educational foundation for other leaders in sports.
