Alumni Highlights
Sarah Lindh
Sarah Lindh ’08

Medical physicist at Mayo Clinic


Sarah’s path began with hands-on physics research at Bethel and led to advanced cancer treatment. After graduate study and a Mayo Clinic residency, she now helps ensure radiation is delivered safely and accurately for patients. “Beyond the technical side, Bethel’s liberal arts approach helped me develop softer skills that are just as critical in a scientific career.”

Savannah Danz

Graphic designer and artist


Savannah exhibited and sold work through Bethel’s new shared art studio and gallery space in Northeast Minneapolis during Art-a-Whirl. The experience helped her step into the local creative community and begin seeing her work through a professional lens. “The space helped me start seeing myself as a professional artist—not just a student.”
