Amber Sampson

Amber Sampson is the Arts and Entertainment Editor for Las Vegas Weekly. She got her start in journalism as an intern at Vegas Seven but joined the editorial team within just a few months. Amber spent three years as a web editor and writer there, covering everything from male revues to virtual reality. She later took her skills to the casino-gaming industry, where she served as a storyteller and communications specialist for Caesars Entertainment, highlighting the stories of casino workers at more than 50 properties countrywide. When she isn’t working, she’s sipping N/A beers (you heard that right!), enjoying local theater and comedy, playing video games and obsessing over the last film she reviewed on Letterboxd.
