Her passion for color and composition drives her artistic process, and she employs various digital tools to convey stories in her work. Sarah has spent the past 10+ years developing a broad range of skills, including graphic design, photography, strategic communications, client services, and education, which she employs in her pursuit of a career in the creative field. She conceptualizes innovative ideas, builds connections, and incorporates best practices in design strategy to manage all aspects of creative projects for influential companies. Through freelance work and collaboration with creative teams, Sarah continually expands her artistic horizons.

​

Sarah's passion for advocacy and giving back to the community extends beyond her professional pursuits. Alongside participating in social events, she is heavily involved in volunteering to support causes she cares about deeply. She actively works with animal rescues to aid their social media and marketing efforts, and also opens up her home to foster rescues.
