She is now recognised as a leading international expert on risk-critical decision making in crises and is an Honorary Research Fellow at Cardiff University.

As a Chief Fire Officer, she has attained the highest rank possible in the UK. Her operational experience includes leading the fire service response to major incidents such as the London Bridge terror attack, the Finsbury Park terror attack and the aftermath of Grenfell.
She is a strong advocate for social mobility and is an ambassador for The Big Issue and Street Vet. She was named as one of The Big Issues top 100 changemakers, a Marie Clare Future Shaper and featured in Cosmopolitan's Millennial Power List. Her first book, Heat of the Moment, was published in 2019 and her second book, The Gender Bias, was published in 2023. Dogs are an important part of Sabrina's life, since adopting a stray dog during her period of homelessness with provided the only social and emotional connection during that time.
