Sarah Gould, President and Owner of Ethos, has been recognized by The Journal Record as part of its “Best Women-Owned Businesses” feature, highlighting leaders who are shaping Oklahoma’s business landscape through innovation, leadership, and community impact.
Since becoming owner in 2016, Gould has guided Ethos from a small interior architecture practice into a multidisciplinary firm delivering complex projects across education, healthcare, civic, and nonprofit sectors.
