Born and raised in Los Angeles, Sarah was passionate about music from an early age. Or, to hear her mother tell it, “What normal four-year-old girl hums Mozart while she’s climbing the monkey bars!?” After much pleading with her traditional immigrant parents, she convinced them to allow her to begin studying piano at the age of 7, and she’s been growing as a musician ever since. Despite her lifelong devotion to music, Sarah believed that a career in music was for those with more privilege, so she attended UC Riverside and received a degree in Business Administration with honors. However, after less than a year of working in the corporate world she found her bearings and realized that music could be more than just a personal passion, despite limited financial means, and so left her advertising job at DDB to pursue a career as a composer for the screen and visual media.
Sarah began her music career at Elias Arts, a premier commercial music house, where she was mentored by famed commercial composer Jonathan Elias, eventually becoming the first and only female composer in the history of the company. Sarah has composed, mixed, edited, and produced music for a plethora of national brands and worked on hundreds of tracks hosted by both Universal and Elias Arts professional music libraries. Many of the tracks that she has worked on have been featured on television shows such as American Idol, Access Hollywood, Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader, Breaking Amish, Dateline NBC, Fox and Friends, Fox College Football, Keeping up with the Kardashians, Late Night with Seth Meyers, Nascar on Fox, NBA Basketball, NFL on Fox, The PGA Tour, Premier League Football, Regis and Kathy Lee, Saturday Night Live, the 2016 Rio Olympics, and many more. Sarah’s work can also be heard on dozens of commercials for a wide variety of household names such as Nissan, Infiniti and State Farm as well as several Super Bowl ads. Most notably, she is the featured female singer in the “Liberty, Liberty, Liberty” Liberty Mutual jingle.
Sarah then completed her Master of Music in Screen Scoring at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music, where she was awarded the Alan Silvestri Scholarship, given annually to the top-rated applicant to the program. Sarah was also selected to participate in the USC Thornton Board of Councilors Mentorship Program and was privately mentored by world renowned composer Thomas Newman.
Upon graduating with her master’s degree, Sarah secured a position with film composer Brian Tyler, providing additional music for the films Transformers One, Super Mario Bros., Fast 9 and 10, Scream, Those Who Wish Me Dead, and Rambo: Last Blood among others. She was also the score producer
on Awakening, the resident live show at the Wynn hotel in Las Vegas. Sarah was co-composer alongside Brian Tyler on the AppleT+ docuseries The Big Conn, and scored the documentary The Herricanes that won 2 awards at SXSW. Most recently she completed work on Amazon MGM’s The Map That Leads to You, a
romantic drama directed by Academy Award nominated Lasse Hallström (Cider House Rules, Chocolat, Dear John, A Dog’s Purpose), which was released in August 2025 and was the #1 movie worldwide on Amazon Prime.
