My Story

I am a strong, passionate creative with an insatiable desire to become familiar with the unfamiliar. I was introduced to life’s fragility at a young age, which is why I put so much emphasis on living while we’re here, taking risks, and celebrating every moment. I believe life is constantly shifting around us and it’s important to change with it. I am an adventurer with a deep belief that our world exists to be explored & expanded, much like our minds. My choices in life are led by my curiosity, creativity, and determination to be the best version of myself in each moment.​

​

I lost my Dad to melanoma at only 13 years old, and my Mom to pancreatic cancer just months before turning 30. Those experiences have shaped me in ways I'm still discovering, but they've also reinforced my deepest belief: there's so much life worth living, even alongside the difficult things. I've learned to carry my grief, trauma, and pain hand-in-hand with the beauty the universe offers up to us every day. I've built a career I'm proud of, traveled to incredible places, formed meaningful connections, and kept finding reasons to be excited about what may come next. 

​

I don't have everything figured out, and I will never claim to. But I don't believe that's a requirement for sharing what I've learned. From hospital bed sides to Tuscan villas, from Copenhagen canals to cannabis grow facilities, & from Croatian islands to Baltimore City streets, I feel confident in the magnitude of life I've lived and the unique perspective it's given me. Ever since I was a little girl, my goal in life was to share my story - even way before it became this interesting! 

 

I consider this platform an ongoing creation with so much potential to grow and evolve, and I would love to connect with you along the way. If you’d like to discuss my work or possible collaborations, hear more about my journey, or simply just say hi— please get in touch!​

 

Xx, Sam
