Testimonials

    “I had the pleasure of working closely with Sara Ingram for over five years. Several years later, we brought her on to support the CUNY Institute for Implementation Science in Population Health executive team on operations and infrastructure and to oversee internal and external communications.

    Sara is immensely productive and repeatedly demonstrates that she is capable of completing the work of two or more people. She is organized, transparent, egalitarian and is a person of great professional integrity.”

    Denis Nash - Executive Director, CUNY Institute for Implementation Science in Population Health and  Distinguished Professor, City University of New York Graduate School of Public Health & Health Policy

    "I had the privilege of working with Sara on a number of challenging projects. Sara was able to manage several projects at once with competing deadlines and was able to shift gears and prioritize what needed to be done in order for on time delivery. Equally important, Sara brought a perfect balance of humor and calm when needed."

    Michael Thompson - Facilities and Operations Manager, University of California, Berkeley

    “As Board President of At Home With Growing Older I want to acknowledge the great value that Sara Ingram brought to our organization.

    As a small non-profit, her support in our strategic planning and project management was invaluable. She has excellent internal and external communication skills, and we leaned heavily on her ability to draft, edit, format and write everything from ‘how-to’ guides to process maps. Her ability to develop, organize and maintain our databases and drives helped streamline our outreach efforts.

    Sara is an excellent resource, whether on staff or as a consultant.”

    “Working with Sara has shown me the many professional strengths that she has. I have been struck by how responsive and stakeholder-centered she has been, including that she created systems that sped up and enhanced access to services.

    Sara is quick to reply with either a direct answer or to confirm that she is actively working to get one. She has been reliably solution-focused when we have worked together. I appreciate her work ethic and habit of communicating in a thorough way with consideration for protecting sensitive information.”
