Source: Clarity Dante Thomas Nov 5, 2015Sara is nothing short of exceptional. Her ability to deftly shift from designer, to strategist, and back again in just one breath is awe-inspiring. Sara is tough to cleanly categorize – she is a natural born leader who excels in the craft of visual & product design; she inspires her user experience team by channeling the user in brilliant ways; she delivers insights a seasoned brand planner would be eager to take credit for; and she challenges clients in the most graceful manner. She truly is a master of all. Sharp as a whip and super fun to work with, I would team up with her again anytime, anywhere, anyhow.

Sara is a true creative leader. One of her top qualities is her ability to empower her team to produce amazing work that reflects the goals of the product.
She is a fabulous leader who gives clear, concise & constructive feedback. Her design aesthetic is reflective of a true creative. Anyone who works with Sara would be fortunate to have such a wonderful person on their team.
Source: LinkedIn Jessica Menk Jan 5, 2015In my 11 year career in interaction design, I have rarely worked with such a talented, well-versed, and fun creative director. Sara has a strong focus on branding and product design. Over the past two years, she has helped transform our internal product design team into a refined group of talented designers that could compete with any external agency. She can work with any personality type and has the utmost respect for all of her colleagues. She is deadline and detail oriented and constantly works on improving her skill set. I would highly recommend her for any position in this space.

From project inception through final execution, she mixes passion, a discerning eye and insightful communication. The result: beautifully designed, immersive experiences that bring value and pleasure to the end user, success and pride to her teammates. Equal parts grit and grace, Sara delivers to the very highest creative standards. I cannot endorse her highly enough.

She has an expert eye, a deep understanding of user experience and a strong commitment to product excellence. She is also an especially astute communicator who can effectively balance disparate and sometime conflicting executive input without sacrificing product quality or business requirements.
