Sr Marketing Manager, Voiceflow | Been known to build a Bot or two 🤖 | Podcast Co-Host|
Hi I'm Sara 👋
Big fan of the oxford comma, pasta, and marketing.
I started my first "adult" job 10 days after I graduated from college and grew from the first support rep to the power user of Drift inside of Drift.
I held 4 different roles, was recognized by the leadership team for upholding the leadership principles of the company, and awarded President's Club.
Then, I moved over to Alyce, helping them create the category of Personal Experience, grow a community of raving fans, and create a product and company that customers and non-customers love.
Now, I'm at Voiceflow, back to my roots as a growth marketer learning the PLG model and owning a community of 8,000+ conversation design experts.
From #5to9 you can catch me listening to True Crime Podcasts, training for a half marathon (I'm not running a race I just want to train to be able to run that many miles), reading, and eating.
I also co-host a podcast about professional growth and development. It's called Self Control & Cheese. Listen here: https://anchor.fm/selfcontrolandcheese
