SARAH

seen in...

... but there's probably 15 other Sarahs in your life, so you can call me Kleist, if you want. (No pressure though.)

Whether it's an old tale told in a new, innovative way, or a narrative that looks, feels, and sounds more modern, I believe that the way to reach today's audiences is to bring them characters they can relate to from composers who are influenced by the sounds of now.

Translation: I'm probably not the best choice for your grandmother's musical theater (unless your grandmother was extremely cool and ahead of her time, in which case, introduce us).

Apart from my Pop-Punk rendition of Defying Gravity, I'm known for being "very chill" and "incredibly reliable" and "perfect for the middle harmony because I'll *actually* learn it."  (Real quotes! I can provide references!)

What I'm NOT known for is being humble on a website—I design them for a living, so I know exactly how far a little strategic bragging and well-placed sass will get you on the internet. ;)
