Sydney was born and raised in New England, and came to North Carolina in 2012 after a decade in the Washington, DC area. She has served as an effective organizer, advocate, mentor and mediator in a wide range of applications including domestic violence, tenants’ rights, and corporate culture in non-profit and for-profit corporations, and with individuals and families. She has a life-long history of volunteering, and has had led several ministries serving mothers of young children and uplifting and empowering women. She firmly believes in the power of one, thrives on d’esprit de corps, is compelled by injustice, and finds deepest purpose and fulfillment in her relationship with God.

Aside from “professional volunteering”, Sydney has worked professionally in finance, politics, philanthropy, and interior design. She currently operates her own business as an Interior Space & Organizing Consultant while doing her most important and very favorite job in the world, being a mom.
