Though Sara’s family is largely Persian, she is able trace her mother’s lineage a few generations back to Armenia. Her heritage shows most in her nose- relatively narrow, but long - and her eyes - wide-set but wide-opened. She has a light olive complexion and wavy, brown hair that reaches her breast. Paired with naturally medium-thick eyebrows and plump lips, she’s a super cutie, head-to-toe.

Personality:
☆ Generous ☆ Stubborn ☆ Intuitive ☆ Spacey ☆
Sara is an idealist, she’s always looking for ways to make things the best that they can be. She spends a lot of time fleshing out her ideals in order to cover every possible facet of her life. She’s slow to trust and is highly intuitive; first impressions with her are key because she is hesitant to change her initial feelings about people. That being said, rarely are her intuitions about people wrong, she prides herself on being able to sniff out the bad apples in a bunch and avoid those people as much as possible.
Sara is always open to lend an ear to a friend in need. She tries to avoid conflict with other people, but at the same time is surprisingly good at resolving conflicts between others. Sara is very flexible, she rarely makes plans in advance and tends to live in the here-and-now as opposed to adhering to a strict schedule. As a result, she is often late to class or to outings with friends.

History:Like a significant portion of the Hills’ population, Sara comes from a Jewish, Iranian family. Her mother’s family, a few generations ago fled from the genocide in Western Armenia and settled in Tehran - the capital of Iran - where they lived for two generations. Later, when the Iranian revolution came, Sara’s grandparents immigrated to the Hills before the fighting had a chance to begin. There, her mother married another Jewish Iranian immigrant and gave birth to Sara.
While a large number of the Jewish-Iranian immigrants came from wealthy homes, Sara’s family did not. Sara grew up dangerously close to the poverty line. Like something out of “Slums of Beverley Hills,” the family makes a living in one of the poorest areas of California, but have managed to send their daughter to one of the ‘good schools.
Sara attended one of the rougher middle schools that feed into Beverly Hills High. Though she never got any marks on her official discipline record, she had a notorious reputation as a ne'er-do-well, lazy, good-for-nothing. But now that she's moving up into high school, she's hoping to put that reputation aside to look good for prospective colleges. As a result, she's cut off ties with her old circle of friends, though what the future has in store for her, nobody can tell.
