@samanthatenus
I build brands, content systems, and creative teams that drive measurable growth.
What I'm looking for
I've led brand, content, and production work at Intuitive Surgical and Reprise Digital, including the launch of Mediabrands Content Studio across four IPG agencies. My work combines full-funnel strategy, creative direction, and operational ownership for complex, regulated environments.
At Reprise, I built an end-to-end production process that increased internal capacity by 30% and accelerated delivery by three months. I also helped grow one client's annual spend from $34K to $535K and increased Somersby brand awareness by 268%.
As founder of House of Creatives, I produced video, static, and motion content for brands including Live Nation, Ink Entertainment, the University of Toronto, and Toronto Fashion Week while building and mentoring a creative roster. At Intuitive Surgical, I manage national events and logistics while helping reduce on-time delivery failures from 21% to 1%.
