With a degree in design and an impressive 15 year career in events to include the youngest female MD at Mask and Founder of Story Events, Sarah then founded her own agency, The Edit Events, in 2016. In 2021 The Edit and Golborne Events merged to create The Golborne Collection.

Her passion for brands alongside her creative background means that she loves designing and developing ideas for clients to perfectly fit their brief. Sarah relishes the fast paced nature of events and loves to create pinch me moments for her clients. Having worked across the globe, London is now the focus and particularly the unique venues. Known within the industry as a calm and collected individual, she also mentors aspiring event professionals and provides board level consultancy.

"I am very much obsessed with the events industry. I adore getting a brief, finding the perfect venue and designing an incredible event. For me the best moments are seeing the expression on guests' faces as they walk into the space as well as the delight as they discover all the little touches. Everyone notes that I'm a very calm person and that comes from planning thoroughly, always believing that however mad the brief is that we'll find a solution and an unshakeable desire to always deliver. A challenging, crazy, weird and wonderful brief - bring it on! "
