Flash forward to college graduation (go Gamecocks!), Sarah officially started her branding and web design company, McKinley Media. Since then, she has worked alongside multiple million dollar businesses helping them achieve that ever-so-perfect online presence. 

Sarah's story really began the moment social media became popular.  She would spend hours designing and redesigning her former Tumblr page to perfection, until one day she had troves of people asking her if she could help them achieve the same look. One thing turned into another, and soon Sarah had built herself a small side gig in college. She formerly helped bloggers with their photography and websites, creating a space where people were inspired to take action. She likes to believe she was part of the original "influencing" crowd... just as the "nerd behind the scenes" ;).

a passionate designer fueled by brown sugar lattes & the love of aesthetically pleasing spaces.

What I also love about Sarah is she has the heart of a teacher: never hesitates to explain how to do something and recommends ways to reduce overhead expenses if possible. I'm already discovering ways for us to work together again!

It's everything I could have ever dreamed of and more! She was so helpful throughout the entire process - I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to increase their online presence.

She was so helpful with the design process and made things incredibly easy to launch. I'm so excited to have a place for all of my cleaning guides and resources for my followers!
