About Sara Kiesler
I’m a communications and marketing strategist who believes in the power of storytelling to inspire action, build community, and drive impact. My career began in journalism, sharpened in political advocacy with organizations like Planned Parenthood and Fuse Washington, and has grown into leadership roles where I’ve managed teams, advanced equity initiatives, and delivered measurable results.Today, as part of King County Metro, I blend strategy and creativity to market our world-class transit system to our 2 million+ resident county. With an MBA in Sport & Entertainment Management, I also bring a deep interest in sports, equity, and community-driven events. Across every role, the through-line is clear: I use communications to connect people, elevate voices, and help build a better world.
