PEOPLE + PLANET-CENTERED DESIGN
COMMITTED TO DESIGN FOR BOTH PEOPLE AND PLANET, WITH A VISION TO INSPIRE CLIMATE CARE THAT BENEFITS EVERYONE — NOT JUST THOSE WITH PRIVILEGE OR ACCESS.
Holistic environmental solutions must transcend socio-economic, racial, and industrial barriers. We need integrated, contextualized green spaces, systems, and services that work in harmony across urban, suburban, rural, and wild land settings. By embedding impact and inclusion into supply chains, workflows, and storytelling, we can create meaningful change that’s equitable and lasting.
PROCESS-DRIVEN
Honor the process—with curiosity and humility—because the journey reveals the true cost and value of what we create. Understanding where our food, land, and goods come from, and at what economic, social, and environmental cost, gives us the power to make better choices. A thoughtful process helps us treasure and enjoy creations that are truly good for people and the planet.
CREATIVE CONNECTOR
With years of experience in marketing, strategy, project management, and creative execution across agency and in-house settings, I specialize in mapping, assembling, and connecting the dots for impactful projects and campaigns. I prioritize relationships and the intricate details of collaboration, knowing that these connections are what make projects thrive.
If you share a passion for people-centered, planet-first design, I’d love to hear about your process and explore how we can create something meaningful together.

TESTIMONIALS

I have worked with Sam on creative production and communication projects across 3 countries. [His] production, videography, photography, and storytelling skills are incredible. He is able to work in a wide variety of challenging field conditions without compromising the quality of his final product.
I have worked with a lot of people in the field, but few have the natural ability to connect with a diverse set of people, from a wide variety of backgrounds, socioeconomic contexts, etc. than Sam.
