Hi, I'm Sara.

I partner with leaders to build their capacity, creating stronger, more resilient organizations and communities.

Phoenix Collaborative helps mission-driven organizations build their capacity and navigate complexity. With two decades of experience leading disaster response and recovery efforts, I can help you tease out the big picture from the chaos and connect the dots to practical solutions and resources to make it a reality.

Through strategy, facilitation, partnerships, resource identification, and resilience planning, I provide capacity-building support to leaders to deliver their missions.
