Hi, I’m Sam!
Ever seen a poster that drew you across the room for a closer look? A brand sharp enough that you pulled up their website? A social media video that had you thinking nonstop about that restaurant, that sweater, that event? I’m a human-centered designer who makes that happen, melding aesthetics with design thinking to engineer identities and experiences that pull users in and get them excited to be part of your brand's story.
Whatever you need to make that happen—branding, advertisements, video, social media, UX/UI, you name it—I’m here to make it happen!
I recently graduated Carnegie Mellon University with honors with a Bachelor of Design. Along the way, I explored a variety of other classes such as psychology, Spanish, world history, film, and glassblowing. My smorgasbord of educational pursuits, along with my time spent studying abroad at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, has trained me to find creative design solutions in unexpected places.
Outside of work, I’ll be outside. I love road biking, running, hiking, skiing, plein-air landscape painting, and otherwise exploring! On a rainy day, you’ll find me at the movie theater, drawing and painting, or cheffing it up. There is no such thing as too much garlic.
