About Sam Small

Hi! I'm Sam Small, a seasoned designer based in Kansas City, Missouri. With over 12 years of design experience, 8 of which have been focused on product design, I am passionate about pushing boundaries with design and exploring emerging technologies. Throughout my various design roles, I have developed a deep understanding of business needs from a creative perspective. I am driven by an unwavering fascination with user interaction and the power of human-centered design. My design approach is empathetic, placing a strong emphasis on understanding the underlying needs and emotions of the user. This allows me to create beautifully intuitive solutions that go beyond functionality and have a significant impact on enhancing lives. My work showcases my multidisciplinary approach, which integrates product design, design systems, branding and identity, motion, and 3D. I have a proven track record of leading design teams and contributing to impactful solutions for notable clients such as Meta, Visa, Google, Fitbit, First American, Brooklyn Nets, Intel, and Amazon.
