About Samantha Oughtred

Founder & CEO of SAM+PR

Hi, I’m Samantha—strategic storyteller, passionate creative, and the founder behind SAM+PR. With over a decade of experience in communications, branding, and marketing strategy, I help small businesses, creatives, and community-driven organizations find their voice, connect with their audience, and grow with purpose.

SAM+PR was born from a love for storytelling and a belief in the power of relationships. I combine big-picture strategy with down-to-earth execution—whether I’m building a website, designing a campaign, or creating content that resonates. Clients often describe working with me as “seamless, insightful, and inspiring.” (Check out the reviews to hear more!)

As a dancer, artist and mother of two, I understand the grind of building something meaningful—and I bring that same creative drive into every project. Whether you’re launching a business, growing a nonprofit, or refreshing your brand, SAM+PR offers clarity, confidence, and a collaborative process that actually feels good.

When I’m not crafting digital marketing magic, you’ll find me dancing, reading, or soaking up sunshine with my family on the beach or working in our mini urban backyard farm.

Let’s create something creative, innovative, and FUN!
