Our Team

Sarah (she/her, dharma name True Light of Courage) believes in joy as a spiritual pursuit. Sarah is a fiber artist, spiritual ecologist, and Cape Cod native. She has worked globally on the back end of sustainable and ethical fashion production and supply chains on behalf of leading American brands. For many years, she was based in Africa where she worked directly with artisan cooperatives and textile producers including the management of a handbag production facility in Rwanda supplying Kate Spade's On Purpose program. Working side-by-side with global artisans showed her how making things with our hands embodies our innate sense of being interwoven with the world. She is a student of countless teachers including Thích Nhat Hanh, Robin Wall Kimmerer, David Abram, Mary Oliver, the Brewster flats, adrienne maree brown, Kate Fletcher, Dr. Larry Ward, her grandmother and aunt (both master knitters), her dog Lari, and all alpacas everywhere. She is an ordained member of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s Order of Interbeing and holds an M.A. in Nature-Culture Sustainability Studies from the Rhode Island School of Design. Recently, she was the Executive Director of the mindfulness education nonprofit Calmer Choice. Currently, she is the founder and director of The Interwoven Institute. She lives on the ancestral lands of the Wampanoag (Cape Cod, Massachusetts, US) with her partner, her spinning wheel,  and all her yarn.
