About Sam
Web Designer & Front-End Developer
My name is Samantha; however I prefer Sam. I am a web designer and front-end developer originally from Delaware. I moved to Phoenix in 2011 and have since made Arizona my home.
I have 10+ years of experience in the industry which includes web design, web development, graphic design, some video editing, support, and documentation.
Outside of web work, I am a tech repair person working on 3-5 repair jobs during the weekends including Windows PC and laptop repairs, some Macbook repairs, console repairs, and overall cleaning of those items.
I also love video games. My favorite games include Minecraft, Hollow Knight, Spider-Man games, and the occasional Call of Duty and Fortnite.
