"On stage, Samantha has a magnetic warmth allowing me to feel instantly comfortable. She is diligent in her research and astutely aware of audience expectations. I felt confident and calm speaking alongside her (and trust me, I’ve done enough panels, talks, etc. to know what it takes to be a good moderator - and Samantha has got it down!). Her professionalism, extends far past her time in-front of an audience. She made me feel welcome and most importantly, heard, throughout my time working with her."

"Samantha Foon, known as Yenta Girl in Metro Detroit, has been incredible to work with. She’s been genuinely supportive of what I’m building with Tekiah Kosher Spirits and has played a key role in helping us grow awareness. Her content is thoughtful, high-quality, and truly connects. She’s an outstanding spokesperson - authentic, professional, and engaging - and a natural connector who brings real value to any brand she works with.
Her professionalism and depth of knowledge give you a true edge—helping elevate your brand, sharpen your message, and expand your reach in a meaningful way. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking to take their social media, brand presence, or community impact to the next level."

"Working with Yenta Girl was a pleasure! Samantha is professional and fun and her poise, creativity and enthusiasm made for an extremely successful video project.

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Samantha Foon on numerous projects through the Jewish Federation of Detroit, and she consistently brings professionalism, warmth and thoughtful preparation to everything she does. Most notably, she interviewed social media influencer Max Cohen (Murray Hill Boy) at a 400+ person event last fall, where she truly elevated the entire program.
She was not only personable and engaging on stage, but also deeply collaborative behind the scenes, working closely with us and Max's team to ensure the questions were meaningful, relevant, and tailored to the audience. During the program, she kept the conversation dynamic and entertaining, making the program feel both substantive and accessible for all ages in attendance while simultaneously connecting with Max.
Beyond her skills as an interviewer, Samantha is simply a great person to work with and to know. She is approachable, reliable and genuinely invested in the success of everything she is involved with, and I would confidently recommend her for any speaking or interviewing opportunity."
Jodi Feld | Director, Affinities
"It was a true privilege having Samantha interview us at the Lion of Judah Conference about our bestselling book Chutzpah Girls: 100 Tales of Daring Jewish Women. The interview was not only thoughtful and inspiring, but also deeply impactful in driving awareness to the voices and legacies of Jewish women. Her platform helped elevate the conversation and brought our mission to audiences in a meaningful and unique Yenta Girl style. We are so grateful for her professionalism, insight, and commitment to storytelling that matters."
Julie Silverstein & Tami Schlossberg | Co-authors of Chutzpah Girls
"Working with Samantha is easy from story pitch to completed project. She’s a people person in the truest sense, and we’ve seen that translate directly into increased views, engagement and follower growth at the Jewish News through her 'Yenta Girl' videos. Her approach is simple: be curious, be there when people need you and embrace new challenges. If you want someone who is genuinely positive, delivers real digital growth and always brings a fresh perspective to the conversation, Samantha is your go-to."
