Meet Our Team
Rooted in Identity, Driven by Connection
Founder & Principal
My name is Emily Spahn
I started Sage Messaging after years of working with nonprofits around the world—from public health projects in Malawi to statewide campaigns in Colorado. I kept seeing the same issue: incredible programs weren’t sticking.
I wanted to understand why. What I found was simple but powerful—information alone isn’t enough. Real change takes connection, trust, and a thoughtful strategy. So I built a team that brings those elements together to help organizations like yours turn good ideas into lasting impact.
Turning Ideas into Impact
At Sage Messaging, we believe that meaningful connection takes collaboration.
We’re fortunate to work with a trusted circle of creative partners who bring a rich mix of skills, perspectives, and lived experience to every project. Together, we shape messages that feel authentic, look beautiful, and speak to the heart of each community we serve. Their contributions are at the core of what makes our work resonate.
