Sara is a pleasure to work with, especially to those sometimes creatively challenged. She has an eye for detail that is helpful to those managing multiple projects, and also wants the best results for each and every client she designs for. She is eager to help from concept creation to helping the client visualize the end product- and that is a great quality in a designer. Sara is well liked by her co-workers and any company would be lucky to have her on their team.
