(proof I’m not a nine-year-old anymore)

I’m Sara, an art director who makes a difference.

At nine years old, I thought my passions for creativity and problem-solving could only manifest in one career path—a Supreme Court Justice X interior designer.

But at nine-and-a-half, I heard of the Long Island Sound Foundation’s anti-littering ad competition and realized there was a clearer direction for my hobbies. My ad, “You Can Make a Difference,” was chosen from over 3000 entries and I landed the client.

I’ve been an art director making ads ever since, but they (and I) have certainly grown. My Supreme Court Justice X interior designer-level ambition has never faltered though.
