Sarah Baia began her career as a law clerk at the Albany County Office of the District Attorney, a role she held while studying for her JD at Albany Law School between 2005 and 2008, and has since become a staff attorney at The Hartford in Albany, New York. Sarah Baia also has an interest in community theater and starred in the play Pirates of the Chemotherapy when it was performed at the Carousel Ballrooms in 2012.
Written by Paul Schutte, the play was created in an effort to raise money for the Norma J. Vinger Center for Breast Care, which offers screening and breast cancer diagnostic testing with the aim of promoting awareness of the condition and ensuring patients have access to information and medical treatment.
The play follows the story of a young mother who has just discovered she has breast cancer, following her as she begins to attend group therapy and forms bonds with five other patients. Offering a comedic slant on a tragic story, Pirates of the Chemotherapy demonstrated the strength of everyday people when taking on the tragedies of life and showed that you can laugh, even when times are their toughest.
