Hi. I’m sam. 👋🏼

I have a degree in Art History.

It’s just as useless as they said! But I still draw and take photographs. If you follow my work, you’ll get to see my art!

I used to be:

A bartender. A barista. A personal trainer. The stoner who worked in the Antique Photo Booth at your local amusement park. Oh—and a high falutin’ copywriter who made lots-o money for other people before the bubble burst all over my jeans.

Creative writing 🤝🏽 Marketing strategy

^^ That’s me. I’m the handshake. For over a decade I’ve straddled the no-man’s-land between the literary world (books, publishing, academia) and the marketing world (selling stuff).

“From the earliest strategy sessions to the late-night emails and breakthrough wins, your fingerprints are all over some of our most meaningful milestones.

We’re proud of the work we created together and incredibly grateful for the ways you’ve helped shape and elevate this brand.”

- Tasha Gregory, co-founder of Kobi Co.

“It’S LIKE WATCHING MY WRITING BECOME MORE HUMAN IN REAL TIME.”

Brooke Hofsess, The Second Bite

“True story: I've been known to dig through your writing to try to find your take on something I'm struggling to express. You’re a damn good writer—and an even better human.”

Megan Dowd

THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKIN ABOUT

Know what I love? Real-time conversations where we actually use our vocal chords and faces, instead of just tapping away anonymously behind a screen.

And coffee. And dogs. And a smooth old fashioned. I like those things, too.
