    Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer, Omnicom Media Group

    Los Angeles

    Sara is responsible for putting rigor behind the shared Omnicom mission of attaining equal representation, development, support, and retention of all underrepresented groups. Sara takes on this role following four years with OMD USA, where she held the dual titles of Diversity & Inclusion Lead and Senior Director of Integrated Media Planning for Clorox and Pepsi.

    Sara is also on the board of the 4A’s Foundation supporting diversity, equity and inclusion in the industry; and is a mentor for She Runs It, supporting career development for women in advertising. A frequent panelist at industry events and partner conferences, she has been a highly effective ambassador for OMD & OMG’s D&I efforts. A graduate of Princeton University, Sara earned certification in D&I from Cornell.

    As an R&B vocalist and yogi, Sara is a soulful songstress and a strong supporter of body positivity and self-love. She has been shattering stereotypes since the age of 17 when she co-launched a record label with a Grammy-winning music producer. Since that time, Sara has VJ’ed for MTVu, released 2 EPs and 2 full length albums, and starred in CW’s "The Next" alongside rapper Nelly. Her single "Take A Number" has more than 4 million views on YouTube, and she hit the stage with Wyclef Jean at Advertising Week New York in September of 2019.
