I tell stories.


I have built my life and career around the stories I tell: my stories, fictional stories, people’s stories, and brand stories. It’s human nature to seek out a narrative whether in books, movies, theater, or from an ad on your phone. I specialize in finding that story and telling it effectively.

Intro


I have over 10 years of experience in creative and content writing including short stories, essays, articles, blogs, press and media releases, ad content, print, newsletters, emails, speeches, social media, and more. My writing and content have been featured in journals, magazines, blogs, radio, and in print. My work experience includes small businesses, non-profits, the music industry, higher education, consumer products and services, tech, and more.

“Samantha has been a valuable member of my content team. She is adept at taking an assignment, assessing direction and producing high-quality content that hits the mark. She also possesses the rare ability to write in different voices effectively, based on the client, the type of content and need. On a personal level, Sam is simply a great person to work with, bringing a positive attitude to each day. "

Testimonials

“I have had the pleasure of working with Samantha on several projects — most notably, on TEDxPortsmouth, formerly TEDxPiscatauqaRiver. As Organizer + Licensee of this event, I had to manage many teams and individuals, and never felt as confident in my delegating as when it was to Samantha, who has led the social media team and participated as a contributing blogger, for several years. She followed through in a timely and professional manner every time, and was a great writer, social media expert and creative thinker. I have collaborated with Samantha on a number of other projects as well, including appointing her as a marketing point person for a major Feminist Oasis event. I was able to leave it in her hands as I travelled, and as always, she followed through on every requested task, and took initiative to make decisions that improved the outcome of the event. I cannot recommend Sam highly enough. She cares about making her community a better place, and has the skills to do so. She's also just a wonderful person to be around. Hire Sam, pay Sam, collaborate with Sam, befriend Sam. Sam is great. "
