Hey there! I'm Sam, a US Air Force veteran turned creative storyteller and the brains behind The Vilano Social. With a background steeped in discipline and precision, I've seamlessly transitioned into the dynamic world of digital marketing.

My journey as a creator began with a passion for crafting compelling narratives, honed during my time volunteering as an outreach specialist and social media manager for multiple nonprofit organizations. During my time in the military, I personally managed various social media platforms for the US Air Force and built strong engagement with a community of over 53,000 followers. As a nonprofit outreach specialist and volunteer coordinator for a local Dog Rescue in Florida, I was able to establish relations and develop community partnerships with multiple local businesses and garner hundreds of repeat volunteers, equating to thousands of volunteer hours and the successful adoption of over 500 rescued dogs. I've seen firsthand the transformative power of authentic storytelling, and it's this ethos that forms the heartbeat of The Vilano Social.

As a Gen-Z enthusiast and social media aficionado, I bring a fresh perspective to the digital marketing space. My goal is to not just showcase products but to tell genuine stories that resonate with diverse audiences. My experience in nonprofit outreach has taught me the importance of creating content that goes beyond aesthetics, content that connects and inspires.

With a finger on the pulse of the latest social media trends and algorithms, I'm here to turn your brand's narrative into captivating visual experiences. Let's collaborate and bring your story to life, one frame at a time. Explore my portfolio and join me on this exciting journey with The Vilano Social!
