About me
Sarah won her first D&AD pencil awarded for an Ikea film, at Buckinghamshire University. She then spent the next few years in London working at traditional and digital agencies such as Ogilvy, Agency Republic and AKQA. Sarah soon moved to Ogilvy Paris where she worked for 5 years on clients such as Coca-Cola, Dove, Perrier, and Louis Vuitton. Sarah was quickly appointed as Dove creative brand ambassador and travelled to other agencies within the network to assure a certain standard of creative output across the business globally. Sarah worked closely with Maureen Sheriff, the originator of Dove 'Real Beauty' Campaign. Sarah then relocated to Ogilvy Dubai where she went on to win D&AD, Cannes Lions, Effies, and Dubai Lynx for work on Coca-Cola and Volkswagen. Since arriving back in London in 2017, Sarah worked at BETC, AdamandeveDDB and Brave Agency creating cut through, purposeful campaigns that resonated worldwide. Highlights include campaigns for Netflix US and directing a film for activewear brand, LNDR. More recently Sarah creative directed the Coca-Cola global Christmas ad where she worked hard to keep the integrity of the creative whilst managing 180 markets.
