Growing up in Portland, Oregon Sadie was able to spend much of her childhood outdoors and found wonder in the natural world. Her Waldorf journey laid the foundation for her natural curiosity, and inspired her love for creative expression and fiber arts. In 2021, Sadie joined the Corvallis Waldorf School after a decade of teaching in Portland area Waldorf schools. She has found immense joy in facilitating the environments where students explore creatively with their hands and discover ways in which fiber arts can soothe not only busy hands, but give healing to the heart as well. Whether hiking through lush trails or trick training with her spirited Border Collie, Sadie finds inspiration in the colors, patterns and chaos of nature.
