Hi, I'm Sam!
For the past decade, I've been designing, illustrating, animating, and art directing, 360 campaigns, brand refreshes, motion systems, title sequences, film graphics, and live events. I got my start at the renowned design and motion studio Imaginary Forces. After my time there, I freelanced at various creative studios, the last being the Experience team at Apple TV. Seeking to plant some roots, I joined the fast-growing creative production studio Malka Media, where I helped win and lead top accounts like AWS, Amazon, IBM, and Deloitte. Malka was acquired by MoneyLion, and later, both became part of Gen Digital, where I now serve as Senior Art Director across its family of consumer brands and established Malka accounts.
I've had the privilege of leading small and large teams of creatives globally, developing an extensive network of creative directors, copywriters, designers, animators, editors, project managers, and producers, all of whom I owe deep gratitude for shaping my creative journey.

By day I’m a strategic designer, thinker, and art director. By night I'm an expert storyteller of knights, dragons, and superheroes for my two boys. I love exploring, creating, and making a mean pour-over coffee for my best friend, my wife. I am an overly curious Virgo seeking to find beauty in the ordinary.
Based in NJ, working everywhere.
