Besides a stint as a grade 7 & 8 sewing teacher, donning her mom's up-cycled gown at her own wedding and a long-held fascination with the big ideas of design, Sarah is thrilled to add her passion for positive change, and her skills as an educator, writer and manager to the Fashion Takes Action team.

Sarah brings over a decade of Canadian and international training and experience in the sustainability, education and social enterprise sectors to her big but fun responsibility at FTA: rolling out Studio learning events and resources that grow knowledge, business savvy, and leadership confidence in our members.

Because FTA members span across Canada and the United States, and soon to be Europe, the UK and Australia, video conferencing and webinars will play a key role in our programming. However we understand the value of in person workshops, thus Sarah is working to develop a comprehensive and easily accessible program that can be packaged and repeated for members in cities around the world.
