After ten-plus years in Corporate America, Sara began her entrepreneurial career in 1981 by establishing a permanent staffing service placing high-end administrative support personnel. In 1984, Sara acquired a temporary service, expanding her firm to one of the largest of its type in Atlanta at that time. The temporary division was divested in 1988, and the permanent division in 1991.

In March 1991, Sara entered the mergers and acquisitions industry and became actively involved in many of Walden’s successful closings of small to middle market sized companies. While Sara specializes in owner representation, she has also handled unique buyer representations in the national marketplace. She has represented and sold companies with sophisticated high profiles in the service sector, to heavy manufacturing and distribution businesses with equal success. Sara is actively involved in the firm’s valuation services and has been engaged as an expert witness by several of Atlanta’s accounting and legal firms. Sara’s M & A expertise has led her to be a guest speaker for talk radio shows, IBBA Conference speaker/trainer, as well as participating in numerous business panels and speaking engagements at the local level.

She serves as Vice President for Walden Businesses, and serves on the Executive Board of the Atlanta chapter of the National Association Women Business Owners, and on the Executive Board for Lexington Crossing Homeowners Association.

Sara holds the Certified Business Intermediary (CBI) designation through the International Business Brokers Association, and is one of less than 100 individuals in the United States to have earned the M&AMI (Mergers & Acquisitions Master Intermediary) designation through M & A Source.
