Sabrina is the founder of Equity Through Art, dedicated to using art to foster brave conversations on identity, empathy, and systemic change. Her signature program, Inner Strength, Outer Impact, empowers community advocates, working with the unhoused, veterans, and women’s advocacy groups, by addressing burnout and cultivating self-compassion. Her work has impacted countless participants, encouraging sustainable personal growth and collective healing.
“I create spaces where people can pause, connect, and grow through art and conversation. These are spaces for healing and understanding, where creative expression helps us process emotions, share stories, and build empathy. I want participants to leave feeling more grounded, inspired, and ready to bring what they’ve discovered into their own communities and relationships.”
