Originally from Louisville, Kentucky, Sarah had an interest in art, writing and technology from a very early age. She spent her childhood building websites and designing album artwork. Fortunate enough to attend a high school that offered graphic design classes, she was able to pursue her passion and expertise earlier than most of her peers.
After two years at Northern Kentucky University, Sarah transferred to Stephens College in pursuit of smaller class sizes and an emphasis in marketing and communications, rather than fine art. Stephens College offered a one-on-one learning environment in which she excelled and customized her education.
Sarah has held various marketing, design and creative director positions including Brake Printing, Missouri Consolidated Health Care Plan, Westminster College and Fresh Ideas Food Service Management.
She currently serves as the Director of Marketing at Fresh Ideas Food, a dining services provider for colleges/universities and businesses. Fresh Ideas has experienced tremendous growth in the last five years, which has allowed her to innovate, lead and execute strategic marketing initiatives from the ground up while managing a team of digital marketers. Sarah manages and develops all marketing, communication, branding, digital communities and creative direction for Fresh Ideas and companies underneath the Fresh Force umbrella.
In addition to managing an award-winning in-house marketing team, she also leads, facilitates and manages all projects with external creative professionals, which includes video, photography and web design. Sarah serves on the Fresh Ideas operations team and reports directly to the COO while working closely with the Fresh Ideas owners, president, and corporate staff at the Columbia, MO headquarters.
