A single mom moved into her parents' garage to save money. Now she's on track to pay off her student loans within a year.

Sarah Ann Eller, a 27-year-old registered nurse and content creator, moved into her parents' garage apartment in Arizona in April 2025 to save money and pay off her student loans within a year. She relocated from California with her parents and daughter in 2020 to reduce living costs, and the garage apartment now helps her financial goals while providing childcare support.
