Hello

I'm Sarah

I love blending thoughtful creative with insightful strategy for that elusive mix of art and science. I’m a passionate brand nerd known for ensuring we always keep the customer at the center of everything we do. I pride myself on being a client whisperer who thrives on translating ambiguous asks into focused work and rallying divergent stakeholders around the cause. You’ll find me to be a collaborative partner and mentor, as well as a solution-focused, “glass is half-full” team leader who can retain a sense of humor under duress.
