Sam El-Aker

Digital Media Pro

“If you do what you love, you do it with love.”

It’s a motto that has allowed me to turn a lifelong tech obsession into a living, spanning 16 years with CMS, 22 as a writer, 11 with SEO, 12 with social media management, 21 in web/graphic design, 15 with photo and video editing, and now 2 with AI.

A Bit About Me

I love tech! I carry both my favorite iPhone and favorite Android flagship pretty much wherever I go. I also love sports, and frequently fall down YouTube and Wikipedia rabbit holes.
