Hi, I’m Sarah.

For more than 20 years, I’ve supported the built environment across Houston and throughout Texas, leading marketing efforts for A/E/C firms. As the daughter of an architect, my connection to this industry runs deep—shaping a genuine passion for telling the stories behind the places we design and build.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked alongside both architects and engineers in the public and private sectors, developing strategies that elevate firms, win work, and communicate impact.

This website highlights a selection of that work.


-WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING-

 “Sarah’s marketing leadership has had a direct impact on RDLR’s success and growth over the past five years,” said Daniel Ortiz, AIA, LEED AP, Managing Principal of RDLR Architects. “She has strengthened our pursuit strategy, elevated our brand, and supported our market sector leaders in meaningful ways. Her promotion to Senior Associate is a well-deserved recognition of her contributions.”

"While Sarah was employed at Ziegler Cooper, our revenue doubled and our privately held stock increased in value by 57%. I believe that Sarah’s contribution played a significant role in the financial success of the firm. During my 33-year career at Ziegler Cooper, I can honestly say that Sarah De Ita was the best Marketing Director that the firm has ever employed. Without hesitation and with my sincere endorsement, I recommend Sarah De Ita for any company who aspires to grow its business. What separates Sarah from most typical employees is her sincere desire to excel in everything that she undertakes. Sarah performs and delivers her marketing craft as if she was the sole proprietor and beneficiary of her work product. Sarah is truly one-of-a-kind and a valuable asset to anyone’s organization."

"Sarah was early in her marketing career while at WHR Architects where I had the pleasure of watching her grow and gain experience. Sarah was creative, accurate, careful, dependable, and productive as a marketing coordinator who helped assemble packages for proposals and interviews. She also volunteered to get involved with projects that required her graphic and design skills. Predictably, Sarah has gone on to play bigger roles for other organizations."
