Hi everyone. My given name is Samantha but please call me Sam. I’m a Community Health Worker for a Health Department in a very rural community. Being a CHW I see poverty first hand on a daily basis. I have been with my agency for 8 years wearing many hats there, public health is my passion. Aside from my 40 hour a week job and my current part time status as a college student, I am married and have 2 beautiful children, both boys. One is 8 and is very active in sports, the other is 16 months old and I suspect he’s getting an early start to the terrible twos. We love to be outdoors, camping, fishing and anything else we can do to get our hands dirty. Needless to say, I keep myself very busy and I like it that way.
