Sarah West

GOVERNMENT PUBLIC AFFAIRS Specialist

Sarah's strong leadership skills and enthusiasm translate into successful communication strategies and tactics for our clients.

As a press intern for Congressman Roscoe Barlett on Capitol Hill, Sarah authored op-ed pieces, conducted press conferences, maintained media relations, developed press releases, helped with the organization of special events, and developed detailed contact lists.

"News junky" since childhood, Sarah used passion for government and current events to a career in public relations. Sarah also has practical international experience with four years stationed at Ramstein AFG, Germany, as a military dependent. Being part of a military family has taken Sarah many places around the world from South Dakota to Germany. The constant shuffle provided Sarah with life lessons turned into worthwhile qualities that define success in public relations and advertising - flexibility, leadership, ambition, and confidence. No task is too small for Sarah. Give her a job and she'll tackle it with gusto.

When Sarah stops hustling at work, she entertains herself by critiquing restaurants with friends, grooving to hip hop, visiting spots around the globe or hanging out with her cat, appropriately named, Madeline Albright.
