Originally from Cleveland, Oklahoma, Sam has seamlessly transitioned to student life in Stillwater. Whether indulging in a Curty's hotdog at an OSU sporting event or lending a helping hand at the Stillwater Humane Society, Sam is making a vibrant mark in her newfound home. Currently studying Hospitality and Tourism Management with a concentration in Event Management, she is set to graduate from Oklahoma State University in May 2024.

Her passion for crafting unforgettable experiences emerged in high school when she organized an impromptu outdoor prom after the pandemic graduation. Sam's geeky side is equally impressive. In the 5th grade, she memorized 82 digits of PI to win a slice of pie – and ended up devouring the entire pie, earning a memorable victory (and a stomachache). Off-campus, she's an avid mystery/thriller reader, puzzle enthusiast and claims to have watched every good movie and TV show in existence.
