Her work builds on well-honed expertise leading adult learning, instructional design, marketing, creative strategy and strategic operations at some of the world’s largest enterprises, and in public sector and political roles.
Her highest and best use is in high-stakes, high-consequence work where change is not optional.
Sara was named an OKR Master Coach by a leading OKR software platform, and is an OKR Coach Trainer with ten years of professional-level experience teaching adult learners globally. She's trained in conflict resolution and mediation, and is a professional well-being coach who brings a focus on human wellness, psychological safety and trust to her work helping organizations and leaders achieve their goals.

"You're the easiest consultant we work with. It's effortless. You set clear expectations and deliver on them with mastery. You are the OKR goddess."
"I've attended far too many 50+ person calls in my 18 months [here]. This was by far the most productive, and a rare exception where I didn't leave thinking about how I'd never get those 2 hours back."
"Sara you are a master facilitator. I am autistic and holding my attention for several hours is nearly impossible but I was engaged and interested the entire time. I absolutely love OKR’s."
One of the most helpful things about working with you as a coach, is that you consistently remind me that not everyone is wired like I am.
"Sara’s open to meet you where you are and ask questions to understand what you have even been able to articulate, yet. Her combo of tools and coaching encourage productivity and artifacts to walk away with to action. I want a Sara on my shoulder keeping me going everywhere I go."
Jen Anderson | Marketing Analytics Leader
"When I was in charge of OKRs for [my organization] I attended numerous classes Sara taught and she was far and away the crispest, most concise, and most deeply educated leader and teacher I've encountered. I get smarter every single time I take one of her classes."
