Sam is an independent Designer, Consultant and Creative Director. He has worked in England and Switzerland for the past 15 years building digital experiences and visual identities for a diverse range of clients.

Sam was born in Northamptonshire but it was whilst studying graphic design down in Cornwall that he developed his love for digital and interactive work. Moving to London he worked within the culture sector for organisations like the National Theatre, Southbank Center and The RA developing his knowledge of the industry.

His love for the culture sector, design and digital lead him to working with some of London’s leading agencies where he honed his craft, producing websites, apps and visual identities for organisations like Kew Gardens, Thames & Hudson and Old Spitalfields Market.

After 10 years in London he moved to Zürich, deepening his knowledge of UX, Agile and Design at scale. It was whilst working within Zürich that he got the opportunity to design for two of the most exciting areas of digital innovation; Edtech and Fintech working for clients like Education First and Credit Suisse.

Sam now lives back in London, working collaboratively with agencies and partners and continuing to explore his love for design and digital through a diverse mix of projects.

His work has been featured on sites including Awwwards, Site Inspire and the Apple App Store.
