Hi there, I’m Sam. 👋
I’m an Art Director + Designer with 10 years of agency experience.
I grew up in the blistering heat of the wild west, but spent a decade in New York City honing my advertising skills. Currently, I live in New York with my *tiny* rescue dog and spouse.
By day, I wield my advertising superpowers as a Creative Director. By night, I am most likely creating mischief in the kitchen.
