Sam Kittendorf

Design Associate

---

Though his IT education is on the developer side of the CIT program at Northwestern Michigan College, Sam took a chance on Safety Net, and we're glad he did! Sam's journey with Safety Net started with an internship, but he quickly won over our hearts (and stomachs) with his wicked sense of humor and passion for group lunches. Within weeks, we knew we had to bring him on permanently, and we haven't looked back since! When it comes to client services, Sam is the man with the plan. He's a people person who communicates like a boss, making sure our clients get the best possible results from our Professional Services team. He develops project quotes with precision and care, always going the extra mile to build positive relationships with clients and colleagues, alike. And he does it all with a smile on his face and a trick up his sleeve. Sam's not in the office? Where could he be?! Our bet is he's out on the trails with his trusty Husky, Beau, or he's backpacking his way to new adventures. When he needs a break from all that exploring, it's likely you'll find him climbing a rock wall or playing Disc Golf. Rumor has it he's a pro, and he’s waiting for it to hit the next Olympics. So don't be surprised if you catch him practicing his Turbo-Putt during his lunch break! Sam's strengths lie in his determination, adaptability, and gratitude. His colleagues describe him as an open-minded guy who looks for the humor in life. He always goes above and beyond, ensuring that every interaction leaves people with a smile on their faces!
