Sabrina Is...

A Visionary.

Frank Baxter
Former US Ambassador to Uruguay
Chairman Emeritus, Jeffries

Sabrina is simply a force of nature. We have known each other for over twenty years. I have worked closely with her on many projects and causes, specifically when she replaced me as Chairperson of After-School All-Stars and while serving on the Board of Fremont College. She is up to any challenge. She is one of the hardest workers I know. She is always the most prepared person in a meeting with visionary solutions. Her imagination is fertile and productive and she is impeccably honest. Her Rolodex is massive. Everyone who meets her, likes her. With all of her accomplishments, she manages to be kind to all and is constantly helping others.

A Thoughtful Board Member.

Kathy Schloessman
President & CEO
Los Angeles Sports & Entertainment Commission

She is a tremendous asset to any organization she chooses to support - a chameleon entrepreneur. I met her at a major fashion show she was hosting, while she was running a fashion college that she started, built and then sold. She is incredibly smart and went on to start a bank, a private college and then became interested and active in the tech community. In addition to her private success, her civic involvement has been tremendous: she went from building a homeless center, to being on the city planning commission, to inner-city education, to serving on the board of The American Friends of the Louvre and Petersen Automotive Museum. Sabrina is successful in every environment she enters and she brings value to every organization she touches.

A person of integrity.

Andrew cherng
Founder & Chairman
Panda Restaurant Group

I can always count on Sabrina as a friend and colleague. I served on the board of Fremont College as an investor and watched how hard she works. She also helped me on the University of Panda online program. I deeply respect her advice, but most of all I respect the way she upholds integrity and always does the right thing.

A doer.

Andrew Barth
Former Chairman
Capital Guardian Trust Company

If you want something done right, ask Sabrina to do it. She is a hard worker and doer. Her drive and work ethic will continue and I cannot imagine her slowing down.

A Financial Wiz.

Toni ko
CEO, Bespoke Beauty Brands
Founder, NYX Professional Makeup

We've had many parallels in life and career, and I rely on her intellect as a financial wiz. During the sale of my first company, Sabrina gave me advice from her own experiences that helped drive the sale home. While others get together for shopping or golf, we get together to talk finance and investments.

A Strategic Thinker.

Elan lee
Game Designer & Founder/CEO
Exploding Kittens

Sabrina is one of the best people I know. A true strategic thinker, she’s smarter than most but, with her humility, makes you earn that realization. I constantly seek her guidance on everything from employee and investor strategy to brainstorming ideas for my next game.

A Problem Solver.

Ryan craig
Co-founder & Managing Director
University Ventures

Sabrina is one of the most creative and energetic leaders working to close America’s skills gap at the intersection of education and employment. She has pioneered important new pathways that solve major problems and is always on the lookout for ways to reduce frictions for both individuals and employers. I’m awed by Sabrina’s accomplishments.

Wise.

Mimi song
CEO & Chairwoman
Superior Grocers

Sabrina's various professional experiences combined with her exceptional judgment, perfect timing and tact make her an incredibly wise businesswoman and friend.

Influential in community.

Rob kingyens
Founder & CEO
Yellowbrik.co

I am grateful to Sabrina for the connections she has brought me into as my board member. She always seems to know the perfect person to help with whatever project I discuss with her and makes the introduction feel natural. I sometimes wonder how big her contact list is and how she knows everyone so well personally.

A Mentor and Friend.

Nanxi liu
CEO & Co-founder
Enplug, Inc.

I am lucky to have Sabrina's big heart and sound advice in my life as an investor, mentor, and friend. Her feedback has been an important part of my career growth. Sabrina helped me navigate our tech company from startup mode to global expansion. Thoughtful and innovative, Sabrina expertly brings her extensive experience across multiple industries to positively impact organizations she's involved with.
