Creative, resourceful and multi-skilled Sam brought an easy going optimism and organised determination to our studio. Equally passionate and capable when hand crafting typography, drawing scamps and rendering visuals, he utilised and managed a wide range of techniques to realise his concepts. Collaborative, self motivated and purposeful he consistently delivered the big ideas as well as the small details on a number of our Global FMCG Brand clients.

Sam was an invaluable member of my creative team at Bannistar. His design skills and knowledge of packaging design were an incredible asset, plus he was also able to flex his 3D design muscles across a number of projects which is something any good design firm would cherish. Sam is also a skilled hand lettering ninja, he crafted a number of original pieces during our time working together that I hold in high regard, as do the clients they were created for. I look forward to the opportunity of working with Sam again in the future should the opportunity arise.
