Making waves. Turning Heads. Inspiring the World.
Sarah is a human example of defying myths and breaking molds.
Talking about multi-talent, Sarah is one to be included in the mix. Who would have thought a Korean immigrant student who has worked hard to climb the corporate ladder to become a high level executive of Viacom (MTV & Nickelodeon) would be one to break the mold and become many things. Currently, being a mother is her first priority, but that doesn't stop her from succeeding with being one of the very few Asian female executives in a caucasian-male-driven corporate playground of Viacom in the heart of NYC. Then as if that wasn't enough for Sarah, she went on to dabble in jewelry and before you know it, her precious gems were hanging on the necks of celebrities on the red carpet. And just when you thought she's done it all, she surprises us with a book she's penned in two languages. And despite all that, one would think she is probably a mess, a woman who lacks time and energy with self-care ... but no. She's a regular with her dermal restoration specialist and of course, a true fan of Vivre SkinLabs. What is next Sarah?!
