sarah.placente@signdesign.com/ ext. 213

Sarah came to Sign Design in 2012 after eight years in accounting and customer service in the banking industry. She works in collaboration with the department managers and sales team to create estimates and cost completed projects. Sarah is also trained in purchasing and scheduling and jumps in to assist whenever needed.

Sarah graduated from New England College of Business & Finance with a degree in Business and a concentration in Accounting.  She enjoys the challenge of sourcing materials to make our client’s visions a reality. Sarah’s superpower is detail orientation and she uses that daily to keep our estimates competitive and accurate!

What do you love most about Sign Design?

I like the relaxed atmosphere here and the challenge of sourcing materials to make our client’s visions a reality.

What made you want to work at Sign Design? What makes you stay?

I was looking for a new opportunity after working in banking for many years. My cousin worked here at the time and told me about the job. The relationships I’ve built with my co-workers are what have kept me here.

Where have you worked prior to Sign Design?

Before Sign Design, I worked at the Bank of Canton for 8 years. I started as a teller and was an Accounting Assistant by the time I left.

What other roles have you had at Sign Design?

I am pretty much one of the fixtures in Estimating at this point. I am also cross-trained in Purchasing & Scheduling.

Do you have any hobbies?

Mostly just being a bad influence to my niece and nephew.
