Sage Dolan-Sandrino

Sage, 22, is the founder and creative director of studio and digital magazine, The TEAM Mag & stars in the upcoming Disney+ Original series, Growing Up. Creating art at the intersections of her identities as an Afro-Cuban queer and trans woman, Sage utilizes her art practice to shift culture via authentic and impactful storytelling. A young changemaker, she is committed to creating opportunities for young black and brown queer and trans folks to see themselves reflected in narratives of joy, love, acceptance, and celebration— A reality we are too often denied. Since transitioning in middle school, Sage became a public voice for trans rights.  She was an ambassador to The White House Initiative for Educational Excellence for African Americans under the Obama Administration and now serves as the Monica Roberts fellow at the National Black Justice Coalition, directing creative projects for liberation.
