I’m excited for the opportunity to continue to contribute to the talented and hard-working team at DSLS in my new role as a scout."

Daniela Schlingmann, director of the agency, added: "Sarah is a highly dedicated and valued member of our team and we are delighted that she is now stepping up to the level of scout. We are very excited to see what the future will bring for her and for the company."
