Sarah Pribis on Reinventing the Creative Hustle: From NYU to Her First Feature Film
At Cocoon, we love celebrating creatives who redefine what it means to pursue your dreams in New York City, and few embody that spirit better than Sarah Pribis. An actor for over two decades and a content creator with a story to tell, Sarah brings both grit and grace to every set she steps on. Most recently, she lit up Casa Lambert during a shoot with Thigh Society, managing social media while adding her unmistakable creative energy to the day. From moving to NYC at 18 to study at NYU Tisch, to starring in her first feature film premiering on Tubi, Sarah is living proof that perseverance and passion are a power combo.

From Theater Classrooms to Feature Films
Sarah’s journey started with a dream and a one-way ticket to New York City. At just 18, she enrolled at NYU Tisch School of the Arts to study acting, and she never looked back. In a city that can be both magical and merciless, she found her footing early and never left. Today, she credits that leap as the moment that set the course for her life as a storyteller.
Over the past twenty years, Sarah has carved out a multifaceted career in entertainment, adapting to the twists and turns that define the industry. She’s appeared on screen, on stage, and, as she’d later discover, across social platforms with content that resonates, entertains, and often sparks meaningful conversations.

Creating Her Own Stage
Seven years ago, Sarah expanded her toolkit and began her journey as a content creator. For her, it was an act of creative empowerment: “As a content creator, I’ve been able to take my power back and tell the stories that I want to tell, rather than just be beholden to what someone else sees me as.”
From Instagram reels to TikTok series, Sarah uses digital platforms not as a fallback, but as a full-fledged stage for her work. Her content blends humor, honesty, and personal insight, and in doing so, she’s cultivated a community that mirrors her values: authenticity, curiosity, and connection.

Leading Lady Energy
In a full-circle moment, Sarah recently wrapped her first lead role in a feature film. The project follows the inner life of an artist chasing her dream, a storyline that hits especially close to home. “It’s about the struggle of an artist pursuing a dream, and I love how it paralleled my life in so many ways,” she says.
But in true Sarah fashion, not all stories are so serious. One of her favorite career anecdotes comes from a wildly unexpected moment: starring in an infomercial for a product called Shiney Hiney. The gig itself was unforgettable, but the twist? It landed her an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. It’s a story she tells with joy and self-awareness, reminding us that in this business, you truly never know where something might lead. Watch the interview here.

A Creative Playground at Casa Lambert
For her latest project with Thigh Society, Sarah helped bring the vision to life at Casa Lambert, one of Cocoon’s most charming Brooklyn spaces. She lit up when describing the experience: “Such a beautiful home with many unique nooks to film in!”
As a creator constantly in search of environments that inspire, Sarah appreciated the range and flexibility Casa Lambert offered. From cozy corners to spacious backdrops, the space allowed the team to capture a wide variety of content, without ever needing to leave the house.

It’s a passion that runs deep, rooted in her earliest days on stage and still evolving today through every TikTok trend, film role, and production set she touches.
She reminds us that the path of a creative professional isn’t always predictable, but it’s rich with possibility. And by embracing both the hustle and the joy, Sarah Pribis continues to shape a career defined by resilience, reinvention, and a whole lot of heart.
