Sara nasce a Como nel 1993.
Figlia della ballerina e coreografa Elena Parravicini e di Paolo Ceruti, perito elettrotecnico, appassionato musicista e performer, si forma nel settore del tessile e della moda; da neodiplomata intraprende un viaggio a Londra dove fa esperienza nel settore e si interessa alle arti visive, alla scenografia e al mondo del teatro.
Dopo un breve periodo da assistente creativo nell'associazione fondata da Elena, parte per l'Olanda e si iscrive al bachelor in Belle Arti presso l'Accademia Reale d'Arte dell'Aia (KABK), formazione che le permette di realizzare progetti interdisciplinari e collaborazioni esterne all'ambito accademico. È qui che impara la lavorazione della ceramica, a mano e al tornio. Al termine degli studi torna in Italia e si trasferisce in Umbria, terra che porta parte delle sue origini, dove consegue a pieni voti cum laude il diploma magistrale in Scenografia.
Vive e lavora a Passignano sul Trasimeno (Perugia), dove organizza laboratori d'arte per bambini, ragazzi e adulti, collabora con la Compagnia Teatrale Il Gorro per gli allestimenti scenici e la grafica di divulgazione, realizza progetti multidisciplinari con artisti internazionali e locali e continua ad assistere Elena Parravicini nella direzione artistica dei progetti dell'associazione Casa de Arte.

Her mother is dancer and choreographer Elena Parravicini and father Paolo Ceruti, an electro-technical expert, passionate musician and performer. She trained in the field of textile and fashion; as she graduates, she embarks on a trip to London where she gains experience in the field and grows interest for the visual arts, scenography and performance art in general with a soft spot for theater.

Here she learns how to work with ceramics, by hand and on the throwing wheel.
At the end of her studies she returns to Italy and moves to Umbria, a region that bears part of her family roots, where she achieves her master's degree in scenography cum laude.
