Sacha is deeply rooted in our local area. She was born and raised in Rustic Canyon, attending Carlthorp, Marymount, and CSUN, and playing on the beach at Bel-Air Bay Club. Her interest in building started early in her life as she frequently designed and built “projects” to enhance her parents’ house. Her professional involvement in residential construction started in 2016 at Stregan Group. Since then, she has worked her way through the ranks of construction management at several highly regarded residential remodeling firms on the westside of LA. She also worked for two years as an owner’s representative, which gave her deep empathy for the owner's experience and exposure to a wide variety of construction firms and their methods. Sacha earned her General Contractor license in 2021, which is when she and her wife (see below) founded Uplifters Design and Build. Sacha’s technical expertise, deep empathy for clients, local knowledge, and excellent relationships with subcontractors have quickly made Uplifters a go-to firm for the Palisades, Brentwood, Beverly HIlls, Venice, and more.
Connolly is also a local girl. She is from Malibu and attended Mirman and Marymount, and then went on to Georgetown University for undergrad and USC for graduate school. She studied business management and communications before starting a career as a research manager at a market research and strategy firm. She spent 8 years running large scale research projects for a variety of Fortune 500 companies. While professionally she didn’t work in construction until founding Uplifters, Connolly has always had a love for design and an interest in remodeling homes. Her business background and project management experience have been assets to Uplifters and its clients since 2021. Her eye for detail and organizational skills as well as her strong relationships with clients and subcontractors ensure that projects run smoothly and all parties are satisfied with the results.
