Let's Get to Know Each Other
Hi, I’m Sarah—and I’m so glad you’re here! If you’re buying or selling a home in Charlotte, Belmont, Lake Wylie, or the surrounding areas, you’ve come to the right place. With 15+ years in marketing and communications, a passion for connecting with people, and firsthand experience relocating across states and countries, I know how important it is to find a home that feels like you. My goal is to make your real estate journey seamless, supported, and maybe even fun.
A Background Built for Real Estate
My career has taken me to some incredible places—from the fast-paced world of live TV at the TODAY Show (where I learned to thrive under pressure) to the inspiring halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (yes, I’ve been to the Met Gala, but my lips are sealed!). I’ve learned to thrive under pressure, communicate clearly, and stay calm when things get hectic—skills that translate perfectly to guiding clients through home buying and selling in Charlotte and Belmont.

From New York to the Carolinas
I’m originally from New York (yes, I’m a Yankees and Knicks fan!), but today Charlotte is home for my entire family. Before meeting my husband, Connell Cruise—a professional musician—I lived and worked in Europe, Canada, and the UK. Together, we’ve added several states and even South Africa to the list of places we’ve called home.
Those experiences of starting fresh, building community, and creating a sense of belonging are exactly why I love helping families relocating to Charlotte and Belmont find their perfect place to land.
Real Estate, Family, and Finding Balance
Today, I’m Mom to three wonderful kids—Ivor, Cora, and Ada—who keep me on my toes and remind me daily that life is best approached with a lot of flexibility (and a strong sense of humor!). Being a parent has taught me patience, resilience, and the art of juggling different priorities—skills that translate seamlessly into helping my clients navigate the complexities of buying or selling a home in Charlotte, Belmont, and the surrounding areas.
When I’m not working or chasing after my little ones, you’ll find me in the yoga studio. As a certified yoga instructor, I’ve guided people through finding balance and calm in life’s chaos. That same mindset guides my real estate approach—patient, grounded, and focused on what matters most to you.
Helping You Find Home
Buying or selling a home can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a growing family, or ready to downsize, I’ll listen closely, advocate for your needs, and make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
As a Belmont real estate broker with Northstar Real Estate, I specialize in helping clients buy and sell across the greater Charlotte area—including Lake Wylie, Gaston County, and beyond. Together, we’ll find a home that fits your needs and brings you joy.
