“The creators compass course is a great class for anyone looking to spark and unleash their creativity. It provides understanding on how important expressing yourself and creating is in daily life. Through taking the course, I learned many tools on how to pivot my negative thoughts, positively. I saw myself grow immensely over the 6 weeks of the class, not only in my art, but in my daily life.

Now a couple months after completing the class I create much more than I ever have, and use art to express my experiences and emotions. I am more aware of my thoughts and how much a negative thought affects me.

In the business of life, it was easy for me to forget that creativity is a root to true health. I now make creating a priority, and have expanded my view of what I have the power to create.”

“Sam has been teaching my 9-year-old daughter how to play the guitar over the last year and it has been a fantastic experience! Sam is an extremely talented musician, artist, creative coach and singer/songwriter. She is very passionate about teaching kids and brings fun, patience and a genuine love for music to every lesson. And the lessons have been so much more than just learning how to play the guitar! They choose songs that my daughter loves from the radio and play them on the guitar together, they sing, and write songs together. Sam’s unique style of teaching and strong teacher-student connection has been the perfect fit for my daughter. It has been a joy for me, as a mother, to see the love for music that she had brought to my daughter’s life. Thank you Sam!”

I love making up different kinds of songs with Sam and it’s really fun when we get to jam out together, and I really like how she teaches me different things and shows me cool stuff… 

Before I wasn't really sure if I wanted to play guitar because there was cool other instruments, and then when I learned from Sam how much different things we can do and how good it sounds, I really started to get to like it.”

“Sam is quite possibly the sweetest person I have ever met, and so extremely talented! She is so patient and finds ways to make every lesson fun. My daughter very quickly grew comfortable enough in their lessons to open up, and even sing, which definitely surprised me! I’m so glad that she has chosen to share her talents with the younger generation!”

Sam performed at our wedding and was amazing. She even learned my favorite song for our ceremony! We were also going to have her sing at our reception during the cocktail hour but unfortunately it was during Covid and we had to cancel the reception.

I have followed Sam over the years performing at local establishments. She sang at my birthday party several years ago. Sam has been blessed with her amazing musical talent.

What I find most endearing is her ability to make you feel like you're the only one in the room. She truly cares about you and the event you are celebrating, whether it's your wedding or birthday or other special event.

Follow her Band of Being and experience the joy of Sam's music for yourself!

“My husband and I really wanted live music to be a part of our wedding ceremony, and we are so thankful that Sam was able to use her amazing talents to help make our day so special! She has a great setlist with a variety of songs that are absolutely perfect for a wedding. I’d highly recommend having Sam play at any special event you have because she truly loves what she does and it comes through when she performs. She is also able to shorten and lengthen songs as needed which was super helpful during our ceremony.”
