Sam joins J Street's inaugural Multimedia team after graduation from the University of Michigan, where she studied International Relations and Middle East Studies. There, she served on the board of her J Street U chapter, and helped to sustain a thoughtful, nuanced campus community environment in the divisive wake of October 7th. After graduating in 2025, she worked as a Social Media and Design Intern for J Street U and has held communications roles with New Story Leadership and the Alliance for Middle East Peace, supporting Israeli-Palestinian civil society advocacy networks. Originally from Skokie, IL, she is excited to be moving to DC, especially for her first cherry blossom season.
Fun fact: Sam has a twin sister, who also works at J Street. Can you guess what team/regions she works in?
