Being creative makes me feel alive & connected.
I am an independent web designer and creative communications consultant based in Philadelphia. I’ve been contracting on all sorts of projects for the last 15 years, and have been really fortunate to develop enduring working relationships with clients and deep understanding of a wide range of website and communications systems. Over the years, I’ve worked with major academic institutions and nonprofits across the country, as well as holistic wellness providers and other creatives. I work best in close relationship with clients that honors that design is a dialogue, and our work is best created in collaboration.
I have an undergraduate degree in visual art from Naropa University, a Buddhist college, where I learned to practice creativity as a contemplative practice. I also hold a Master degree in Library Science, and many moons ago worked as a digitization librarian, which set me on my path in the digital information space by allowing me to work on user interface design in the late 2000s.
I am an avid student of the 5Rhythms, an embodied movement meditation practice. I co-produce Renewal Waves, a bimonthly 5R class, and workshops in the Philly area, and am on the teacher training path. I maintain a personal practice of kundalini meditation and breathwork. I live in Mount Airy where I’m raising teenagers amongst the Wissahickon.

I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly than Samantha.
In addition to being excellent at what she does, Samantha is flexible in her process. She has been easy to work with and has been able to accommodate my strong preferences as well as my moments of indecision. I love our connection and always enjoy our meetings. She brings artistry, technical knowledge, and heart to her work.
