For staying young at heart, Sarah Stonewater would suggest working with college students.

Everyday she develops initiatives and programs that "help make them better students and better people," getting to work with and learn from a dynamic group of people in the process.

Knowing that she can make a difference, both to an individual student and on campus as a whole, helps Stonewater to stay motivated. "I love that the work I do has the potential to influence a student or group of students," she says. "Knowing that I have made a difference in even one student's life or college experience keeps me coming back to work every day."
