Hi, My name is Sara Kirkwood
I like to think of myself as a passionate communicator who wears my heart on my sleeve. I thrive on genuine connections and believe that understanding others is at the core of impactful communication. Having grown up across different cultures and communities, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for diverse perspectives and the ways in which people connect. This global lens has shaped my ability to navigate different environments with empathy, adaptability, and an instinct for meaningful storytelling.
For me, communication is more than just words, it’s about emotion, authenticity, and the power of human connection. I love engaging with people on a deeper level, finding the nuances that make every interaction and person unique. Whether in advertising, branding, or everyday conversations, I strive to create work that not only captures attention but also leaves a lasting impact. At the heart of everything I do is a commitment to creativity, connection, and making people feel understood
About me!
Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, I developed a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and global perspectives. My educational journey took me to a boarding school in the English countryside, where I benefited from a rigorous academic foundation that shaped my work ethic and creativity.
I just graduated the University of Miami, majoring in Communication Studies with minors in Marketing and Psychology. These fields have equipped me with a strong foundation in understanding human behavior and creating compelling messages that resonate with diverse audiences.
My interpersonal skills allow me to build meaningful connections and collaborate effectively in diverse settings, further enhancing my ability to communicate and lead with impact.
