​I am the gal behind Sam Jam Creative! I started SJC in January 2020 with the intention of creating things with my mind, words, and hands that bring beauty into the world. Through Sam Jam Creative, I create unique polymer clay earrings and do graphic design for businesses and organizations. I also dabble in freelance writing and write copy for a variety of companies and publications.

In March 2022, I opened a multi-vendor gift shop in the heart of Indiana, PA. The mission behind Create & Curate is to cultivate community through small businesses. At our store, we feature 35+ local small business vendors and sell artwork, jewelry, self-care products, accessories, greeting cards, and a ton more. 

I am a mother and have the pleasure of raising my incredible son, Ezekiel (Zeke!). I am also a follower of Jesus and I have a fiery passion to make His love & grace known to the world around me. I enjoy writing poetry, baking, hiking, reading, and doing life with my closest friends.

I love to create and have a personal goal to utilize my creativity in order to make a meaningful impact in the world around me. I refer to myself as a "jack of all trades" because I am constantly learning new skills and techniques to continue to bring constant creativity to my work.

There is so much darkness and ugliness in this life. My ultimate hope is that my art can bring joy. light, and beauty into your world.

It is so nice to meet you!
