Sarah Lopez
Aloha! My name is Sarah Lopez, and I recently joined the AAPA team, supporting front office administration, daily operations, and—most importantly—our incredible dancers and their families. It’s been a joy getting to know the community and contributing to the positive, creative energy here at the academy.
I’m originally from Anchorage, Alaska, where I went to college and raised my family alongside my husband. For over a decade, I served in an executive leadership role at an Occupational Health & Safety Services company before relocating to Maui. Since moving here, I’ve worn many hats—working in real estate, hospitality, health insurance, and even running my own baby equipment rental business.
With my children now grown, I finally found time to pursue something I’ve always dreamed of: dance. That journey led me to Alexander Academy, where I began taking ballet classes as an adult student. Shortly after, I was thrilled to join the staff and contribute to the place that reignited my passion for movement and creativity.
I’ve had such a wonderful experience so far and am truly looking forward to the journey ahead with this amazing team!
