Work With Me

let’s work together!

Focused on low waste living and sustainable parenting, I aim to bring my audience brand awareness for products and campaigns that are eco-friendly, accessible, and convenient. I believe that a sustainable lifestyle with kids is not only possible, but critically important for our future and theirs. My mission is to share what works for our family to inspire others to make changes in a way that works for them.

Whether you are a business or an individual, here are some ways that we can work together towards being sustainable in the suburbs!

WHY SRB?

To date, I have worked with dozens of brands to share their sustainability initiatives! Here’s what they have to say…

  • Working with Sarah has been a dream come true. Her passion for sustainability and her knowledge of our brand makes for a perfect partnership. Sarah has demonstrated leadership, a love for Bulk Barn, and was extremely collaborative in discussing how to bring sustainability through our Reusable Container program to life in a more meaningful way on social media.
    Each piece of content is carefully crafted to convey a very strong message that educates in a fun and authentic way, and always ties back to our brand attributes. Her genuine approach is evident in the response from our audience that is engaged and trusts Sarah as a Bulk Barn advocate. Her level of enthusiasm and professionalism is unmatched and we feel like she is a true partner for our brand.
    Shannon Gutcher, Director of Marketing – Bulk Barn Foods Limited
  • I adore working with Sarah as she is not only a talented content creator, but a true professional. I can always trust her to deliver thoughtful, authentic content that not only engages our audience but encourages them to take action. Equally strong in providing visual and written content, Sarah’s posts have gone beyond likes and comments, and have led to many women asking about and registering for our program. We have been so impressed with her work and work ethic that we have hired her multiple times. She is, without a doubt, a good investment in our brand!
    Anna Gordon, Engagement Coordinator – Project Neutral
  • It was great working with Sarah as she was able to quickly understand our challenges and needs and develop a proposal.  She is collaborative and brings a practical and fun approach to taking on projects. We can happily recommend working with Sarah as her expertise in the field and passion for our community shines through her work and we look forward to future projects together.
    Thai Pham, Co-Founder & Owner – Replenish General Store
  • It is always a pleasure working with Sarah! With a high degree of professionalism, she delivers polished work that really resonates with readers. Sarah is forward thinking, well-organized, and takes into consideration important aspects of working together, including things like SEO and analytics. Looking for the whole package? Sarah has it in spades, and I definitely recommend working with her.
    Tara McKenna, Founder – The Zero Waste Collective
