It’s been a big-deal month for me, both in Portland web design and Portland roller derby! A week-or-so ago, I played in my first derby bout as a High Roller, at Rose City Rollers’ Season 8 Opener, and I had a fantastic time doing it. And, a mere week before that, I unleashed a brand …
Y’all know that I do design and photography by day, but by night, I also play roller derby! I was recently drafted to the High Rollers, and I love being a part of my team! Now I’ve brought two of my loves together, with a Portland flyer design for my beloved team’s upcoming Brunch Fundraiser! …
If you’ve been paying attention to social media lately, yes, the rumors are true: Sarah G Creative is moving headquarters to a cool new space in Portland’s Old Town!

I love helping shelter pets, and I’m proud to be part of A Bowlful of Heart pet food drive for a second year! Last year, Alyson Clair of Clair Vintage Inspired and I teamed up with some of her favorite local businesses to make A Bowlful of Heart even bigger and better. Thanks to their …

Thanks to an unexpected combination of hubris and overabundant enthusiasm about roller skating, I’ve been selected as a speaker for Ignite Portland 11! Yes, you read that right, folks–if you’ve been looking for an opportunity to see me attempt public speaking in all my introverted glory, here it is. I’ll be delivering 20 slides’ and …
If you live in Portland long enough, you learn that geekery is mighty and on-the-grow here in PDX. This year, the Portland Retro Gaming Expo is continuing that trend, by expanding the event into the Oregon Convention Center. And, with the help of everyone’s favorite barcade, Ground Kontrol, they’re also debuting their new “Mega-Cade”: 20,000 …
I appreciate cool creative works, and I’ve lost count how many times I’ve seen a unique, handmade creation, and then cringed at the price tag. It’s not because it’s too expensive, though–it’s because it’s not expensive enough. Pricing can be a pretty intimidating topic–it’s hard to know what to charge, and you may even feel …
The Alley 33 Fashion Event was a super-fun way to close out my photoshoot-filled July–over 20 Portland and Oregon designers, showing an incredibly eclectic array of looks? Yeah, sign me up! You can see some of my photos from the event on the Portland Mercury blog, where they’ve recapped the event better than I could, …
