Hey, I’m Sam — a creative and all-around idea guy based in Austin, TX. I’ve been in the game for over 9 years, working across design, branding, content, and marketing. My path’s been anything but traditional — I started out in the Navy working on avionics and flying missions as an in-flight tech. That’s where I learned how to stay cool under pressure, lead teams, and solve problems on the fly (literally).
After the military, I jumped into the creative world by launching my own record label. I handled everything from album art and music videos to booking shows and building artist brands from scratch. That hustle opened the door to creative consulting, working with different businesses to help them tighten their visuals, find their voice, and reach more people.
These days, I run my own creative agency, North Third Street. I’ve helped comedy clubs grow from quiet nights to sold-out weekends, turned scrappy ideas into full-blown brand identities, and built content that actually connects. Whether it’s strategy, design, or production—I love bringing big ideas to life and making things that actually move the needle.
