Sarai Marie (saraisthreads)

Sarai Marie is satirizing workplace culture (respectfully). Achieving a reach of more than two million in just months of creating content, Sarai captured her audience with her smart, quick-witted videos that span topics such as “quiet quitting,” taking vacations and training new hires. Her sharp comedic sense makes her a standout among POV creators, elevating corporate content with sketch writing and characterization designed for a Gen Z audience. With her optimistic demeanor and strong grip on what’s trending in the comedy space, Sarai's hilariously ironic characters, Veronica and Susan, are just the beginning.
