Sara Essa

Hi! I’m Sara, a sports-presenter, voice over, live event host and commentator based in the Middle East. There is nothing I love more than delving into the stories of my guests, to understand the sport on a much deeper level and engaging the audience to come on the journey with me. I absolutely love sport! Watching, playing and, of course presenting and interviewing… I have worked across Motorsport, Padel, Golf, Netball, Tennis and Watersports. My approach is to find depth in a sport. I really enjoy discovering the little-known stories of everyone involved, not only the athletes. Sharing their journeys of triumph, determination, resilience, sometimes heartbreak, and all the emotions of competition, to really connect the audience on a much deeper level with the people and details of the sport itself. For me, this is all about asking the right questions, based on lots of research and building rapport with everyone, so they trust me by not only telling me their stories but for me to share them too! I am the most recent host of the Girls on Track UK webinar series in partnership with Motorsport UK, a Padel commentator for the BullPadel Show and have recently hosted on stage at the British Grand Prix. Back in 2021, I grew one of the largest audiences on the audio-only platform Clubhouse through interviewing incredible guests in live panel discussions. This led me to host events for the likes of Volvo, Adidas and Farfetch, to name a few. I have been a voice-over artist for 4 years and really enjoy voicing anything from radio commercials to TVCs, IVRs, social media content, online videos and audiobooks.
