Sadie Deens
Sadie Deens grew up in Essex, Connecticut, and graduated from Central Connecticut State University in 2017 with a Bachelor’s in Communication, focusing on Media Studies, and a minor in Journalism. While she first thought she might go into broadcasting, she quickly found her true passion was helping people feel supported in their work. She began her career in Special Education and later moved into Tech, where she spent 3 years in People & Operations. During this time, she worked with teammates worldwide and learned about different cultures, labor laws, and building connections with all departments and team members.
Sadie loves working in People Operations because it lets her focus on what she values most: creating a supportive and positive experience for each person who joins the team. She’s passionate about making the workplace positive and helping employees feel welcome from day one.
When she’s not working, Sadie enjoys being by the water, trying out new breweries, staying active, attending Patriots games and spending time with her Fiance, nephew, friends’ children, and her big group of cousins.
Why do you enjoy digital marketing?
Being part of a marketing agency has given me a unique appreciation for the work and the people behind it. What I truly enjoy is witnessing the collaboration across departments-- everyone works towards a shared goal. Even though teams may be focused on different pieces of the puzzle, there’s a real sense of unity in bringing it all together.
