HI THERE, I'M SARAH.

Growth is never just systems, structure, or strategy — it’s very human. My work sits at the intersection of ops discipline and human depth.

I’m a Professionally Certified Coach and have led a leadership and operations consulting practice supporting tech companies, VCs, and nonprofits for several years.

Today, I partner with leadership teams as an operator and coach—helping them lead people through change, step up or away, build healthy cultures, and scale with the clarity, EQ/inner work, and the structure growth demands.

Previously, I scaled Ops at Seamless from 0–2 ahead of its GrubHub merge, and built the YouTube/Video line of business at The Orchard before Sony’s acquisition.

I have additional certifications in Applied Neuroscience, and Systemic Team Coaching, with training in other mental health coaching modalities, and somatics.

I’m a mom of two daughters, a cycling instructor, a classically trained singer/actor, and I'm passionate about mental health and women's health, and my lived experiences shape how I live, lead, and coach.

MY STORY

A tall modern skyscraper with alternating vertical sections of orange, blue, and cream-colored panels, under a blue sky with some clouds.
  • When an injury ended my music career and a mental and physical health crisis hit, I turned to therapy and rebuilt - pivoting into seed-stage tech as a CS rep, then building a leadership career I never would have imagined as a kid.

  • A move to California, another baby, and a failed startup piled onto the pressure of keeping up a “perfect” life. Burnout followed, leading me to Hudson’s coaching program—a transformative experience. I launched my practice, gained clarity on my values and chose well-being and authenticity over box-checking.

  • Today I’ve built a healthy, full life - raising my family, running a consulting practice I love, and teaching at CycleBar—while pivoting back to my roots as an operator in tech. Growth is still messy, but that’s all part of the journey!

  • Coaching transformed me, but it also brought tension in my marriage and life. I nearly died from blood clots, then faced divorce during COVID, CPTSD, and the loss of my home. It was rock bottom—but coaching, and the resilience I’d built in early-stage tech helped me surive, then rebuild.

  • Coaching positively cracked me open, but it also created tension in my marriage and life. I nearly died from blood clots, then came divorce during COVID, CPTSD, and losing my home and financial stability. It was rock bottom - but coaching, and the grit I’d built in early-stage tech was crucial in helping me develop resilience, survive and reinvent myself.

MY PRINCIPLES

  • We prioritize well-being as the strategic foundation for lasting growth and impact.

  • Nothing we build together is one-size-fits-all - I blend whole-system and whole-person perspectives with a range of skills, life experiences, modalities, and resources to meet the uniqueness of every leader and organization.

  • I bring a duality of compassion and deep EQ alongside grit, athleticism, and data-driven discipline. Sustainable impact comes from balancing high performance with humanity.

  • I believe leadership demands honesty, even when it’s hard or inconvenient. When we're transparent, and bring our full, selves forward, we unlock what’s possible in ourselves and in the companies we lead.

  • We're a team. Meaningful change happens together with trust, shared accountability, clarity, and support.
