About Me

Hi, I’m Sam!

I help consumer brands connect with their audiences by closing the gap between brand strategy and creative execution. My skill set includes copywriting, graphic design, art direction, content production, creative strategy, and digital marketing. I offer a unique blend of creativity and strategic thinking for brands that want to drive real-world results.

I really hate saying this, but I don’t know how to pare down what I do to one specific job title. I’m primarily a content specialist and copywriter, but I have a knack for wearing multiple hats, including graphic design, photo and video production, e-commerce content, digital asset management, UX design, creative strategy, and much more.

But I wouldn’t have it any other way— I get to focus on totally different tasks each day. By the end of the week, I end up with visually compelling, well-written, SEO-optimized, on-brand content that will change the world and connect with audiences in creative and authentic ways!

What’s that? We don’t have any budget?

Anyway, I earned my degree in Writing and Rhetoric Studies from the University of Utah. While in school, I was lucky enough to intern at National Geographic, Under Armour, and Contravent. After graduating, I worked as a Content Strategist at Contravent, a Global E-Commerce Content Specialist at Stanley Black & Decker, a Creative and Content Specialist at LIPTON Teas and Infusions, a Freelance Content Manager and Copywriter, and most recently as a Copywriter at KONG Company.

When I’m not shoveling coal into the capitalistic machine, I play volleyball, read books, ski, hike and backpack, and forget to water my plants. I also adopt and foster senior dogs. Here’s a picture of the late, great, and toothless Rex.
