Meet Sarah

Hi! I’m Sarah, the designer behind Red Bear design studio—a creative space for both current clients and a peek behind the curtain at my corporate 9-5. With over 15 years of experience as an in-house Art Director, I’ve had the pleasure of working with some truly incredible brands, bringing stories to life through thoughtful, strategic design.

My background is rooted in publishing, I love story telling through layout, typography, and photography. Over the years, I’ve expanded into the fast-paced world of retail marketing—where I crafted campaigns, led creative teams, and helped brands stand out in crowded markets.

Red Bear is built on collaboration, curiosity, and a love for design. Whether you’re here to check out past work or partner on something new, I’m glad you stopped by.
