About Sarah Margulies

Sarah and her family have been blessed to call Greenbrae their home since 2010. They moved here for the quality of life, outstanding public schools and access to the great outdoors.

Sarah holds a B.A in Political Science from the University of Vermont.  She has spent the majority of her career in technology.  The last 12 years have been at Modo Labs, Inc. where she is on the executive team.  As VP, Sales and Customer Success, she has worked to solve the complex problem of digital transformation across Higher Education campuses.  She understands how public organizations operate and the intricacies of working across multiple stakeholders to build consensus and implement solutions to drive efficiencies that serve campus stakeholders.  This experience will be valuable in her role on the City Council where she will be required to work across City and County operations to identify cross-functional resources for collaboration and delivery of solutions to benefit all Larkspur and Greenbrae. She is results driven and a servant oriented leader.  Having recently scaled back to 60% at Modo, the time is right for her to focus her leadership, problem solving and management experience to serve the people and City of Larkspur.

Her strong commitment to community has been demonstrated through hours of volunteering at Halleck Creek, GGNRA, Cedars, Special Olympics, St. Vincent De Paul as well as through fundraising efforts for Kentfield Invests in Kids (KIK), and Redwood High School (RHS) with a focus on its incredible Music program.  Music and the arts have long been integral to Sarah. She is an avid fan and supporter of live music, especially her husband’s band, Funk Nugget, who you may have seen at Larkspur’s Music in the Park.

She is a mother of two daughters, one a graduate of Cal Poly SLO and the other a rising Senior at UCSB and two dogs.  Sarah’s four-legged friends are her shadows and she aspires to learn from their unconditional love and mastery of staying in the moment.  In addition to music and animals, Sarah has great love for the sanctuary of the outdoors and spends a lot of time hiking and running on Mt. Tam, King and Ring Mountains.  This summer she completed a 100 mile Tour Du Mont Blanc.   She is a chef trained in the culinary principles and techniques of French cuisine and has taught cooking classes, has run a small catering business and is a frequent shopper at the Farmers’ Markets.

Her commitment to family and community is evident through her active involvement in local organizations and events, but loyalty and dedication to preserving the best that Larkspur has to offer will define her role in Larkspur’s City Council.
