Adventures in Paper and Play

Artist. Educator. Facilitator.

Improving life through improv and art

“We brought Sara in for The Athena Pack Conference 2023, and honestly, I didn’t know what a full package deal she was. My only regret was that we weren’t connected sooner! She moved a room of 200 women with grace, humor and smarts - got people out of their chairs, connecting, laughing and synthesizing conference content in an embodied way. She was a highlight for attendees, and a dream to work with. 

After the conference, I hosted Sara and a small group of friends at my house for a couples improv workshop… To say the least, we were intimidated / didn’t know what to expect (especially the guys haha), but the time flew by in a flurry of laughter and connection. Her Playdate Deck now lives on my kitchen table - and while I don’t facilitate it as well as she does, it’s an amazing reminder of that evening and an incredible tool for facilitating connection. "

“Sara’s improv coaching was foundational to the health and vibrancy of our evolving relationship—not just in how we relate as partners, but also in how we’ve grown individually. The skills we learned continue to shape how we show up for each other. Even in difficult moments, when we withdraw or struggle to connect, we’re able to recognize and receive each other’s loving gestures because of the grounding we built through this work. Totally worth it! "
