Samantha Ohlson
@samanthaohlson
Sales design consultant and artist educator creating tailored framing, exhibitions, and learning experiences that drive client success.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dynamic professional with a strong background in art exhibitions, education, and client engagement. I build tailored design solutions, mentor aspiring artists, and stay focused on creating impactful artistic experiences with successful project outcomes.
In my current role as a Sales Design Consultant, I collaborate with clients to design custom framing solutions through consultation and personalized service. I develop relationships with local artists to showcase their work in-store, while measuring and cutting framing materials accurately and operating power tools safely to deliver precise cuts and joints.
Alongside client work, I’m a freelance artist who participates in art exhibitions and showcases to display work, create sales, and network with peers. I utilize social media to engage followers and promote my work, conduct workshops to educate aspiring artists, organize and curate exhibitions, and create detailed sketches and paintings for private commissions. I also bring education experience from Bubbles Academy and City Children’s, where I created and implemented lesson plans, provided consistent 1 on 1 support (including for children with autism), communicated daily with parents, supported emotional and social development, fostered a positive learning environment, and mentored new teachers.
