I’ve got a ‘sticky mind’ and ‘dig deep’ people reckon—I’ve also been called affable. I’m driven to create versatile, engaging ideas that move people and work across all media/mediums. Every ‘job’ has a job to do
—if it reaches and resonates, it’ll probably work.

“Firstly on a human level, Sam's an all round good guy and a pleasure to work with. As well as being able to lead a project he's a big team player and will happily fit into wherever he is needed without any Prima-donna attitudes getting in the way . His work ethic and enthusiasm for the craft never ceases to amaze me whenever we work together. Skills wise I would describe Sam as a super talented creative full of ideas, always pushing the boundaries, always learning and always wanting to do better. Top Lad, Top Creative.”

Ian Keltie, Creative & Art Director. GOKELTIE

“Sam is one of the best creatives I have worked with. Committed, enthusiastic and relentlessly positive, he's a joy to work with and consistently delivers on time and within budget. He works well against brief, but perhaps most importantly for a creative, he is good at stretching your own perceptions of the brief, and how far it can go.”

Stephen Patterson, Chief Executive. Newcastle NE1

“Sam is a really talented, experienced and passionate creative. A problem-solver and someone who loves immersing himself to fully understand the clients needs. I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Sam and look forward to doing so in the future.”

Kev Hughes, Creative Director. Drummond Central

“Sam is real gem. An extremely capable creative, who's hard-working and a team-player. Sam always shows great enthusiasm and professionalism when liaising with staff and clients. Always happy to roll up his sleeves and get stuck in, whatever the task. His extensive design knowledge and art direction experience is always of huge benefit to our team, both strategically and creatively. While being a very strong designer, from branding to campaigns, print and packaging to art working for production. As a senior, Sam is a positive voice in the studio, one who shares his knowledge and experience with the wider team, nurturing and encouraging whenever appropriate. Sam is confident and articulate when presenting to clients and communicating often complex concepts in a vibrant and interesting way. I would highly recommend Sam for a wide range of projects.”
