In this episode of Season 8 of The MH Podcast, Take The Day Off, Powered by Splendid Spoon, Hosts Blessing Adesiyan and Andrea Mulan are joined by Sarah Dorsett who is CEO of Nanit, a high-growth technology start-up improving the sleep and lives of babies and parents. Sarah is also an e-commerce leader with more than two decades of experience scaling retail businesses, she previously served as Vice President of Ecommerce at Bed Bath & Beyond, where her site merchandising and marketing strategy drove double-digit retail revenue growth. From spearheading e-marketing initiatives in the burgeoning digital industry at Coty in 2004, to her executive roles at Bloomingdales.com and Century 21 Department Stores, Sarah has developed a highly effective approach to channel strategies that are reflected in Nanit’s leadership in the competitive baby tech category.

Since her time as CEO of Nanit, the company has been named to CNBC’s Upstart 100 list of most promising startups, Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies, and most recently received NPD’s Consumer Electronic Industry Performance Award for the top increase in the North American market share in the smart baby monitor category.
