    Hi, I’m Sam. With over 10 years of experience across various industries, I’ve built a solid foundation in managing projects, streamlining operations, and helping teams stay focused and organized. I’ve juggled everything from strength and conditioning coaching to handing drinks over the bar, and while I’ve learned how to get things done with quality, clarity and care, I've also learned how to communicate, connect and quickly find a common thread, which I believe is the most important skill in business. I specialize in interpersonal skills & communication, project coordination, process optimization, and administrative support, ensuring that all the moving parts are aligned and running smoothly and everyone from the customer to the team & the stakeholders feel valued and considered. If you need someone who’s reliable, organized, and truly interested in project success, let me focus on the details while still taking the 10,000 ft view so you can focus on what matters most: your business.
