Team – Lunnie

OUR TEAM

SARAH KALLILE

Founder & CEO

Prior to founding Lunnie, Sarah worked in marketing leadership positions at early-stage health tech startups and big tech in San Francisco and Seattle. She was part of three startups from Series A through acquisitions, helping to grow teams and sales by 10x. Sarah’s ability to thrive in early-stage scrappy environments has contributed to her success as a founder.

Sarah founded Lunnie in 2021 based on her own postpartum experience and desire to create change for moms. In just a year, she went from an idea to launching a product and selling out thanks to the Lunnie Hive community. Sarah is the patent-pending inventor for Lunnie’s All-Day Leakproof Nursing Bra.

Sarah has earned over $125k in grant money for Lunnie. She won the Female Founder Collective pitch competition (2021), University of Dayton Flyer Pitch competition (2022), the Soin Award for Innovation (2023). Lunnie is also a portfolio client at the Entrepreneurs’ Center in Dayton, OH.

Sarah is a born and raised California girl turned Dayton, OH resident. She holds a B.S. in Journalism from California Polytechnic University. She is the proud mother to three young girls whom Lunnie is named after: Lucy (5), Anna (3), and Jane (1).
