Minneapolis-based leader with 22 years driving exponential growth in healthcare, manufacturing, and beyond — now helping ambitious professionals and executives nationwide unlock their next-level success through high-impact, virtual coaching and consulting.
I’m Sara, a Minneapolis senior leader with over 22 years of hands-on experience in some of the world’s largest organizations, including Medtronic and Georgia-Pacific.
22 Years at the Executive Level
My career has been defined by deliberate, high-velocity moves: advancing rapidly through progressively senior roles, building and leading high-performing teams, and delivering measurable impact at scale. In the last 10 years alone, I’ve operated at the executive level—navigating complex corporate landscapes, driving strategic initiatives, and achieving exponential growth in dynamic industries like medical technology and global manufacturing.
What I Know About Hiring & Talent
I’ve hired, interviewed, and developed hundreds of professionals—from emerging talent to senior leaders. I know exactly what top-tier companies look for: not just credentials, but strategic mindset, executive presence, resilience under pressure, and the ability to deliver results that move the needle. I’ve sat on both sides of the table—making the tough hiring decisions and being the one advancing through rigorous selection processes.
How This Expertise Powers My Coaching
That same insider knowledge now drives my work with clients. I help ambitious professionals accelerate their careers while guiding business owners and leaders to make the key strategic moves that propel organizations to the next level of revenue growth and operational excellence.
Working With Career Clients
I provide targeted guidance on executive transitions, leadership presence, negotiation, and landing high-impact roles—drawing directly from decades inside the systems that hire and promote.
Working With Business Clients
I deliver practical, high-leverage strategy: optimizing organizational structure for scalability, implementing Lean Six Sigma principles to eliminate waste and streamline processes, and executing tactics that unlock revenue acceleration and sustainable profitability. Whether restructuring teams for efficiency, applying data-driven process optimization, or aligning operations with growth goals, my approach turns potential into measurable results—often mirroring the breakthroughs I drove in high-stakes business environments.
My Practice Today
After thriving in corporate leadership, I transitioned to focus on what I’m most passionate about: partnering with high-achieving individuals and businesses ready to break through plateaus. My practice is intentionally selective and high-touch—limited spots ensure deep, personalized partnership. All sessions are delivered virtually, making transformative guidance accessible whether you’re in the Twin Cities, across the country, or building a national presence.
Ready to Determine If We’re the Right Fit?
If you’re truly ready to stop settling and invest in accelerated, measurable progress — career elevation, business scaling, or both — let’s determine if we’re the right fit.
I can’t recommend her enough. I would have paid double for that conversation.
