Testimonials

  • On top of being a talented and professional designer, Sarah is an excellent communicator and collaborator. She precisely understood my needs for my EDI practice and was able to deliver an elegant, organized, and comprehensive website that not only tells a story, but also highlights my services and offerings in a clear and transparent manner. She’s also great with client timelines. I am already planning on working with [Word of Mouth] on new projects.

    ZHOU FANG
    Founder, Intersectional Group

  • It’s really special to be able to find a creative leader who can focus equally on the big picture and the small picture, but I was very lucky to have found that in Sarah. And even though she has an excellent mind for operations and logistics, her focus never strayed from making excellent creative. I’d hire her again tomorrow and sincerely appreciated our time together.

    REBEKAH HUBBARD
    Marketing Director, Betsy & Iya

  • Sarah is a true diamond in the rough. She is clear, direct, honest, and compassionate all at the same time - something extremely hard to find in a creative director. She always has a point of view that comes without ego. She is a creative thinker beyond just art and always comes with positive presumption when problem solving. She is also just an absolute delight to be around, and will bring levity to any situation. I loved working with her so much, and would recommend her to anyone seeking strong creative leadership!

    REBECCA GIBSON
    Client Services, Laundry Service

  • I’ve worked with many art directors, and Sarah is in the very top tier—not only in sheer technical ability but in management skill. Always positive, always motivating, always inspiring, she simultaneously raised creative standards and team morale from day one. She is a rare talent indeed.

    MICHAEL MARTIN
    Writer, Editor, Content Strategist

  • It was eye opening seeing how much goes into making a logo! I loved the whole process. [Word of Mouth's] communication was perfect.
