Sara Margulis
Sara is a wedding- and crowdfunding-industry CEO and lover of all things wedding, gifting, and travel. Sara and her husband Josh started Honeyfund after their own wedding when guests contributed more than $5000 toward their dream honeymoon in Fiji. Sara’s background in business and marketing combined with Josh’s expertise as a software engineer have made Honeyfund the #1 wedding registry app. A 2014 Shark-Tank investment from Kevin O’Leary has fueled expansion in weddings and beyond, with Plumfund, online crowd-gifting for all of life’s occasions. Both services offer 100% free options and the lowest third-party credit card fees in the industry.
Sara speaks about wedding gift etiquette, crowd gifting, entrepreneurship and women in leadership roles. Sara is a classical singer with BA in Music from UC Davis. In her spare time she chases two grade school kids and sings in choral groups.
