Her professional experience with for-profits and nonprofits makes her an excellent resource for our internal initiatives as well as client-facing campaigns — she understands our clients’ pain points and is able to develop resources that articulate the Leone, McDonnell & Roberts’ difference.

Giving back is also a priority to Sarah. Since 2011, she has served the American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Rochester, New Hampshire. In 2021, Sarah was presented the Sandra C.

A lifelong New Hampshire native, Sarah graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a minor in Women’s Studies. When she’s not at the office, Sarah enjoys spending time with her husband, Todd, and their two adult children. Outside of volunteering, some of her favorite activities include camping, biking and playing the piano.
