Samantha is a consultant, coach, and writer specializing in love. She has spent over a decade researching the motivators and barriers to love in human beings and exploring how these factors impact personal relationships and broader social structures.

Her work in love and the psychology of human behavior began with The Love Summit, a business and leadership conference she created while serving as Executive Director of Dream Change from 2012 to 2018. The event brought together business and government leaders to explore how love, as both an ethic and a practice, could heal the deepest emotional wounds of individuals and address society's most pressing social and economic challenges.

As a result of her work with The Love Summit, Samantha was recognized as a Global Shaper by the World Economic Forum and featured in media outlets including FOX19, Real Leaders, The Huffington Post, Spirituality & Health, The Oregonian, and Yes! Magazine.

Samantha earned her MSc in Global Prosperity from University College London (2021) and certification in Applied Compassion Training from Stanford University (2023). She is represented by Amax Talent and Creative Management in Nashville, TN.
