During her time at Amazon, Sarnoff led the company’s worldwide private label business for softlines, served as GM of several Amazon consumer electronic categories, and held several functional leadership roles leading brand partnerships, customer acquisition, demand generation, customer experience, product development, and more.
“Joining Pattern was a no-brainer and a continuation of a personal mission,” said Sarnoff. “Observing the headwinds brands face selling online over the past decade has driven me to be an active part of the solution, and no company is better at helping brands navigate those complexities than Pattern. Global ecommerce is a $7 trillion opportunity, and I am so excited to help brands capture their fair share of the market and accelerate to unprecedented growth.”
Prior to her time at Amazon, Sarnoff served as chief of staff to the CMO at Salesforce, coordinating marketing efforts for the company’s global team across multiple functions—including event marketing, PR, product marketing, partner marketing, and creative.
Sarnoff received a Master of Business Administration from the Kellogg School of Management, with concentrations in marketing and strategy. She also received a bachelor’s degree in art history and psychology from the University of California, Berkeley.
