Designer looking to provide services in human-centered design, facilitation, change management, process improvement, social media & digital content creation, and graphic design. By day I am a civic innovator, specializing in human-centered design for the public sector. By night, I'm a travel content creator and planner, sharing my experiences with local communities across the world and helping others to have those experiences too. I'm a proud partner of Linnett Loving, LLC, a small local government consulting firm. There we work with local governments to improve constituent services and internal processes, using innovative process improvement and design techniques. I specialize in design thinking, facilitation, strategic planning, change management, and strategic communications for our clients. My public sector journey began with the City of Syracuse Innovation Team, using HCD and public engagement to improve housing stability for Syracuse renters. Since then I have also worked at Grant Thornton Public Sector, focusing on customer experience and change management for federal and state clients. I also own my own travel agency, Experience Design Co., in collaboration with my travel brand Discover with Sam. Through digital content creation, travel blogging, and trip planning and design, it is my goal to share my experiences connecting with local cultures and local businesses all over the world, and to help others have those experiences for themselves.
