Sarna has been a successful business manager for approximately 20 years. After graduating from New York University’s Stern School of Business with degrees in accounting and economics, he went on to work at several large and prestigious New York City accounting firms. In 1993, he set his sights on the music business and began his business management career at Provident Financial Management, one of the largest and most successful business management firms. He left almost 10 years later as the managing director of the New York City office to start PS Business Management.
