About SACHS Media

Sachs Media was founded in 1996 by veteran Florida communicator Ron Sachs, following an award‐winning career as a newspaper, magazine, and television journalist. Sachs also served as senior communications counsel to two Florida Governors, Reubin Askew and Lawton Chiles. Three years later, in 1999, partner and president Michelle Ubben joined Sachs Media after stints as communications director for the Florida Senate and four state agencies. Together they have grown the agency into one of the top strategic communications firms in the U.S.

In 2017, Sachs named five additional partners to help lead and guide the future of the agency. The partners and senior leadership group bring extensive state government, corporate, association, and non-profit experience, and include award-winning strategists and creative producers.
