Sabrina received her BS and MA from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where she studied Textile and Clothing Design with a minor in costume design.
Her masters thesis focused on a collection of corsets and their evolution from "Underwear to Outerwear."
Her corsets were inspired by women such as Coco Chanel, Joan of Arc, Cleopatra, Marie Antoinette, Veronica Franco, Marie Van Goethem, and herself. Her thesis gallery show debuted in the Robert Hillestad Gallery in 2008 and a runway show at Joslyn Castle in 2009.

Her corsetry, love of historic dress, and attention to detail is a recognizable trait in her current designs as well. Her thesis design titled "The Mother" inspired her theme for Omaha Fashion Week 2010, "Military Chic Meets Bridal Elegance", which involved piecing her husband's old military uniforms into beautiful evening wear designs.
Sabrina works independently as a designer and has received local and national recognition for her work. She not only participates in numerous fashion shows every year, but stays active in the community by donating and volunteering for multiple charity events.
L'il Fashion by Sabrina is her children's wear line, complete with accessories. Also in 2011 expect to see her line of swimwear at Omaha Fashioin Week, in addition to her bridal and children's wear.
