Hey, I’m Sam!

My journey as a creative professional began with a BFA in Graphic Design from Iowa State University, where I developed a strong foundation in visual storytelling and design thinking. Today, I channel that expertise as the Creative Coordinator for the University of Iowa College of Dentistry. In this role, I have the privilege of working on a diverse range of projects—from developing engaging marketing materials and designing eye-catching building signage to crafting illustrations and experimenting with animation.

Outside the office, my creativity extends into my personal life. Photography has become a meaningful outlet, especially capturing the energy and emotion of local concerts. I also enjoy quieter moments—whether I’m diving into a good book or spending quality time with my golden retriever, Moose, who never fails to bring a smile to my face.

Whether at work or in my personal pursuits, I’m driven by a love of creativity and a desire to bring fresh ideas to every project I take on.
