Sara McGuffie Robinson was born in North Carolina, but is a true Mississippian at heart. She graduated from Clinton High School in 2000. Following in her parents footsteps, she attended Mississippi State University in Starkville, Mississippi. While pursuing her degree in psychology she met her future husband, Phillip, who was working towards his degree in landscape architecture.  After graduating they were married in 2005 and moved to Las Colinas, TX for a short time and then to Birmingham, AL.  In Birmingham, Sara worked at RamTool and Supply Company’s Headquarters as the Marketing Executive Assistant. At RamTool, she handled the co-op program for all 16 branches of RamTool were she was responsible for maintaining relationships with their current vendors as well as establishing new co-op relationships.  Wanting to be closer to home, they moved back to Mississippi in October 2006.

Sara joined the Mona Spa and Laser Center team in November 2006 as Spa Manager. She is a member of the International Spa Association and is currently studying to become a Certified Spa Supervisor and certification in Retail Management for Spas.  What Sara enjoys the most about Mona Spa and Laser Center is the long lasting relationships that are built with the clients.
