Grace St. George

Entrepreneurship Program Manager

Grace St. George is the Entrepreneurship Program Manager for the Founder Residency Program at the Roux Institute. Before joining the Roux, St. George dedicated several years to the development of plant-based, ergonomic footwear as the Founder of Mira. Her innovative spirit and commitment to sustainability led to her startup’s selection as one of five recipients of the Everlane Next Collective Fellowship. This 6-month residency program is designed for companies dedicated to reducing plastic waste in the fashion industry. 

St. George is drawn to mission-driven entrepreneurial opportunities, with a particular focus on addressing sustainability and human rights issues. In her free time, you can find St. George on a walk along local beaches, participating in her weekly figure drawing group, or exploring the vibrant events scene in Portland.
