About Sam

Sam was born and raised in Lufkin, Texas, where he experienced what society might call an “at risk” childhood. He witnessed numerous domestic disputes between the ages of 4 and 12, when his parents finally separated. This left his mother with the untenable obstacle of working two jobs to take care of five children. Since they moved from home to home, they experienced an unstable environment on all sides. Without positive and influential voices, he walked the common path of disrespect, violence, and drugs. Yet Sam refused to make a lifetime of bad decisions. He recognized that he could choose to continue down that doomed path, or he could pull himself up and travel down a path to “greatness.” His new path began at Prairie View A&M University in 1999, where he studied accounting. Sam began his career in corporate America in 2003.

 

He moved to Houston, Texas, and over the next 6 years, he worked in human resources, accounting, billing, collections, customer service, income taxes, management, sales, and IRS negotiations.
