OUR TEAM
SARAH KALLILE
Founder & CEO
Prior to founding Lunnie, Sarah Kallile led marketing at early-stage health tech startups and big tech companies in San Francisco and Seattle, guiding brands from Series A through acquisition.
Motherhood inspired Sarah to take the entrepreneurship leap. While breastfeeding her daughter, she was fed-up with her frumpy nursing bra and constant leaking. Sarah decided to reinvent it. Within a year, she took Lunnie from idea to sellout launch — powered entirely by organic demand and the Lunnie Hive community. Lunnie’s patented Leakproof Nursing Bra contains leakproof, sewn-in cups and is 6x more absorbent than leading pads.
Sarah bootstrapped Lunnie through pitch competitions, earning $150k+ in non-dilutive funding. She won the 2024 Dayton Startup Week pitch competition, 2023 Soin Award for Innovation, 2022 University of Dayton Flyer Pitch competition, and 2021 Female Founder Collective pitch competition. Lunnie is a portfolio company of The Entrepreneurs’ Center in Dayton, Ohio, and is WBE certified.
A California native now based in Ohio, Sarah is a proud mom of three daughters — the inspiration behind Lunnie’s name and mission.
