Sara E. Adler Mandelbaum, Ph.D.

Welcome to the personal section of my website! Here you can gain a little more insight into who I am. Please take a look at my pictures below.

I have many passions and interests beyond economic research and the classroom. I am a mother to a happy, beautiful, wonderful baby girl, Aria Yehudit. We have a 7 year old Maltese-poodle mix, Dexter, who we love to spoil. Dexter also loves economics. He can be seen studying below. I love exploring the outdoors and every aspect of the communities that I get to live! My favorite part of the day is our family walk in the neighborhood or around the local lake. During my time in California my Husband, Uri, and I enjoyed going on long bike rides though wine country. We would take advantage of the beach as often as possible. In California and New Mexico we had the pleasure of being able to go skiing. We got to experience Albuquerque's Balloon Fiesta. Another one of my pastimes is running. I have completed 4 half-marathons, as well as several other races, some with fun themes. Some of my other hobbies include ballroom dancing, playing the tuba, cooking and baking, and trivia. (I am an expert at television, movie, and pop-culture trivia.)
