Sarah Toth - Benefits Alliance
Sarah Toth

Senior Executive Assistant

When Sarah was asked to describe her position at BA, she shared that “While my official title is Executive Assistant, I think of myself as a Juggler and ‘Follow-Upper.’  I juggle a lot of interesting activities which I enjoy because I get bored if the pace is slow – and the pace at BA is the opposite of slow! The ‘Follow-Upper’ part of my position lets me interact daily with BA Members and Preferred Partners alike, which I enjoy immensely.”
