Samantha is a brand strategist with over 20 years experience working on both the agency and client side. She now owns a creative strategy studio. Sam holds a BA from the University of Denver in International Relations (with a focus on the Middle East). She remembers reading Infidel during her senior year of college and feeling deeply pulled to help women and girls escape abuse and subjugation. Spurred by the book and her degree she volunteered with refugee communities all over the country, but consistently found a desire on the part of many organizations to minimize or ignore dangerous signs of abuse. She also worked as a Marketing Director for a well-known women’s health organization, where she saw first hand how well-meaning progressive values can go off the rails as it relates to Muslim women. Post 10/7 Samantha saw the need for a new organization that could fight back against both the rising tide of anti-Jewish hate and the Neo-Jihadist, Islamist agenda permeating the west, especially in institutions of higher education. She continues that work through another non-profit organization dedicated to fighting the information war.
