Hi, I’m Sam. Senior Art Director and Multidisciplinary Designer in Salt Lake City, Utah. For the past seven years my work has centered on public sector campaigns that change behavior.
I’ve worn many fun hats throughout my career including: food stylist, toddler wrangler, hand model, mud thrower, extra #5, and last minute foley artist to name a few. Problem solving is the thread through all of it, and it’s what I love about being a creative.
I work primarily in the Adobe Creative Suite and have been integrating various AI tools into my process.
After hours you’ll find me out with my 2 dogs, perfecting my sourdough technique or scouring ebay for something haunted.
