Sarah Wiltfong joined the Supply Chain Federation in the fall of 2024 as the Chief Advocacy and Public Policy Officer. Previously, she served as Chief Advocacy Officer at the Los Angeles County Business Federation (BizFed), a large grassroots alliance of chambers of commerce, trade associations, minority business groups, and other business organizations advocating for policies that strengthen the regional economy.

At BizFed, she oversaw all advocacy efforts with a focus on energy, environmental, and water policies impacting business. Prior to that, she spent several years in the California State Legislature, most recently as a District Director for a state assemblymember, and previously served as senior staff on targeted political campaigns.

Fun fact: Sarah is a self-proclaimed coffee snob, a seminary student at Talbot Theological Seminary, and a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for foster youth. She’s also a proud mom of two cats – Margaret Thatcher and Susan B. Anthony.
