Hi, I’m Sam.



Based in the greater Cincinnati area, I am a rising senior at the University of Cincinnati’s College of Design, Architecture, Art, & Planning (DAAP) where I study Communication Design. 

As a designer, I am passionate about using my skills to create accessible messages for a wide audience and understanding how design can create experiences and spaces that educate and uplift all groups of people. 

On an average day, you will find me painting and sketching, reading books and writing essays about things that interest me, or listening to podcasts and music.
