My name is Sam, I’m a 20 year old 3rd year product design student at ArtEZ Arnhem, NL. I mainly focus on creating footwear, accessories and wearables. These are designed and created using a combination of digital and analog workflows. When working digitally I make use of Rhinoceros to work in 3D. Using this program I create models for 3D printing, I have over 3 years in 3D printing experience and work with the more common FDM technique but also with Resin based printers. Traditional techniques of footwear production are also in my skill set.

After finishing my HAVO in Amsterdam, where I grew up, I had a gap year where I explored design. In 2020 I started the study Product Design at ArtEZ University of Arts Arnhem in The Netherlands. I’m a maker, I design during the making process. I know how most common machinery works and have a good skillset in sewing.
