Meet The Team

Sabrina identifies as a full Pacific Northwest native even though she started life abroad as she was born into a family with two active U.S. Military parents. Her formative years were spent here in the Seattle area and that means that she has a deep passion for the community of the Puget Sound, and the veterans that live here.

Personal loss led her down the path of funeral service when she realized that she could help others through one of the most difficult and overwhelming events that people experience – the loss of someone close. At the urging of family and friends, she attended Lake Washington Institute of Technology’s Mortuary Science program and graduated Magna Cum Laude.

She was invited to finish her internship at Elemental in early 2019 and knew that it was the perfect place to start her journey as a funeral director.

Don’t think that Sabrina is a one trick pony though. She and her wife Jennifer spoil their four pets with heaps of love and adventure, and you are likely to find her painting, dancing, or cooking along the way. If you really want to get her attention, just bring up Seattle sports or Andy Cohen on Bravo, and you’ve got a friend for life.

Go Hawks! Let’s go Kraken!

Elemental Cremation & Burial was started by Jeff Jorgenson after many years serving families in more traditional funeral homes. He felt that funeral homes were too interested in maintaining outdated traditions and holding onto the control of arrangements that the families should have. It was his intention to create a space where a provider could work collaboratively with families to create incredible celebrations and memories around a life that has been lived well.

In earlier years, Jeff worked in the aviation industry having secured a Bachelors of Science in Aeronautics and a Master of Science in Management from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. It was a wonderful twist in life that brought him to work in the cremation and burial profession both in the pre-arrangement area as well as a licensed funeral director. This hybrid of technical and old world trade that unlatched the idea that end of life service needed to come to the client families with a new and different approach. Graduate work on environmental impacts of greenhouse gasses as well as supply chain management and logistics made it clear that it was time to take these skills and apply them to his love of end of life practices to make them greener and more approachable and affordable for families.
