About Sara Cannon
I've been designing since 1998! I'm thrilled to have worked with some amazing clients such as Disney Publishing, Automattic, Brodo, Recode, VentureBeat, The Getty, The Arc, Disney Streaming Services, Elad Gill, and Flickr.
When I'm not going after the next big idea, I'm at home in Birmingham, AL with my husband and menagerie of pets. I also really enjoy painting and art.
