What an amazing set and team you have!!! That was the highlight of the event for me cooking with your team, the kindness and concern of the quality, and the care of making sure we were ok was above and beyond what I am used to cooking at events. Thank you again for all the hard work, and preparation getting that set up and executing in blazing high temps.

I had the pleasure of working with Sam while she was the Director of Marketing at Union Square Events. Her ability to execute any project from conceptualization to implementation while maintaining a high standard of professionalism was an invaluable asset to our team.

THE CONNECT GROUP

Lonny Sweet, President

I’ve been super fortunate to work with Sam on a current project and don’t have enough good words to say. Not only does she have a tremendous amount of culinary production experience and is spot on with timelines, follow ups and client management, but she also has a very creative thought process. A rare and deadly combination.
