My name is Samantha and I am the daughter of first-generation immigrant parents who worked tirelessly to carve out a better future for our family. Growing up, I witnessed the challenges and sacrifices they made, which instilled in me a deep appreciation for resilience, hard work, and the opportunities this country provides. My parents ensured that my younger sister and I had everything we needed to thrive, and those values shaped the person I am today.
After graduating high school, I stumbled upon an opportunity to obtain my 215 license in Florida, which sparked my journey into the world of insurance. Early in my career, I focused on helping low-income families gain access to affordable health care plans through the government’s health insurance marketplace. This work was incredibly meaningful to me, especially as my father’s significant health challenges during my childhood taught me the importance of access to proper care. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of insuring more than 1,000 families annually, ensuring they were protected and prepared for life’s uncertainties.
In July 2022, my world changed forever when I lost my father. His passing, coupled with our family’s lack of preparation for the aftermath, was a turning point in my life. It made me realize just how critical it is to plan for the unexpected, not only for ourselves but for our loved ones. This experience gave my mission to protect families a renewed sense of purpose.
After taking a year-long hiatus from the insurance industry, I returned with a deeper passion and a broader perspective. Today, I dedicate my work to educating families on how to plan for life after death and showing them how to use life insurance policies to enrich their lives while they’re still here. Helping families create security and peace of mind has become more than just a career—it’s my calling.
Beyond my work, I am someone who thrives on new experiences and meaningful connections. I have a deep love for traveling and exploring the beauty and diversity of the world. From discovering hidden gems in unfamiliar cities to immersing myself in different cultures, I find joy in every adventure. Trying new foods is one of my favorite parts of traveling, as I believe food tells a story and connects us all in a universal language.
I also value creating meaningful relationships wherever I go. Whether it’s connecting with a family I’m helping through my work, making friends in a new place, or sharing stories with someone over a meal, I find purpose in the connections I build with others.
Life, to me, is about growth, exploration, and making a difference. Through my career, travels, and relationships, I strive to leave a positive impact on the world while embracing all the beautiful experiences it has to offer.
