Sara is one of the original compliance specialists in the alcoholic beverage industry. She founded Compliance Service of America in 1983, and her long career spans all aspects of the industry. She has worked closely with clients and regulators across the nation, trained many winery personnel and compliance professionals, and developed the first automated software solution for beverage alcohol compliance.

No longer advising clients directly, she now serves the industry as primary editor of The Digest of Wine and Spirits Law. This role makes good use of her wealth of compliance experience and expertise, and her well-known ability to explain complex regulatory concepts in clear and simple language.

Outside of the office, Sara enjoys long visits with friends, culinary experiments in the kitchen, and creative writing.
