Hi, I'm Samantha Cora Christian Haas
Most people call me Sam (she/her/hers). I'm a writer, editor, photographer, and marketing specialist based in Madison, Wisconsin.
I love to connect with others and create meaning through words, images, designs, and process art with my toddler (I draw the line at glitter).
Nature inspires me, and I'm an optimist at heart. I believe there is still good in the world waiting to be discovered and that we all have a story worth sharing.
​
I enjoy listening, observing, and helping your stories take flight.
