# Meet Sarabeth Schibler: Our New DTLA Showroom Coordinator
We're excited to welcome **Sarabeth Schibler** to the Tangram team as our new Showroom Coordinator for our Downtown Los Angeles space, where she'll be working with both Tangram and West Elm Workspace.
With a psychology degree from Cornell University and hands-on experience in customer service and operations management, Sarabeth brings a unique blend of people skills and organizational expertise to her new role. Most recently, she worked as an office assistant at Truffle Brothers, an Italian specialty food importer in Los Angeles, where she wore many hats—handling everything from customer service and sales to managing their deli and catering operations.

**What drew you to commercial design?** After working in the fast-paced food industry, I'm excited to channel my energy into creating inspiring workspaces and connecting with the design community that visits our showroom.
**If you won the lottery tomorrow, what would you do first?** Get a lawyer! Smart thinking—always good to have someone looking out for your interests.
