Beyond my digital 9-5, I enjoy partnering with @itsbysam on a variety of hands-on DIY activations ranging from Spotify’s 2022 holiday wrap-up and hand painted perfume bottles in boutiques to in-store personalization at Bloomingdale’s and live monograms for book launches at Big Sky. The small @itsbysam team offers opportunities for brands to connect with their audiences through an array of IRL marketing interactions.
