About

Hi, I'm Sarah Slater, and I run Slater's Pins & Poems.  I grew up drawing pictures on my standardized exams in school, using every color of the rainbow to illustrate my math homework, and making up bedtime stories for my little sister. I've held a whole host of jobs throughout my life, including at a farm, as a snack bar worker, museum educator, camp director and more. I spent a lot of time at these jobs doodling on receipt tape or telling stories to the flowers and bees, and I realized something: I want to doodle on every paper within reach, and write strange stories and peculiar poems.  Thus, Slater's Pins & Poems was born.  When I'm not doodling, crocheting, writing weird little stories, I'm a professor at local universities. Making art and sharing knowledge feel like parallel passions, and I enjoy them both tremendously.  Running this little business right here brings me unparalleled joy, and I hope the products I make bring you good vibes too!
