About

I’m Sam Kolesnik, a highly experienced multidisciplinary creative solving problems across digital, print, photography and video. I start with rigorous research to craft strategic, data-driven solutions that help brands grow and connect with audiences. I thrive whether working in-house or in an agency, adapting to whatever the client demands and whichever medium we use.

I’m methodical about file organization, excited to face new challenges, and always happy to help those around me. I’ve been lucky enough to be recognised by my peers as great fun to work with, which I consider my greatest achievement, and it keeps me motivated to keep delivering bold, energetic work in fast-paced environments.
