Sam has been a colleague at National Bank Financial since 2016. She is a licensed Wealth Associate who has completed her Canadian Securities Course. She loves learning and continues to expand her knowledge in the financial industry. She delights in providing great client service and tackling new challenges. Her sunny optimism and hardworking attitude make her a great addition to the team. Sam grew up in Kelowna and returned after getting her Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and Economics at UBC Vancouver. She enjoys travelling and learning new languages, and has studied French, Spanish, Japanese and Mandarin (not that she remembers it all!). She also has extensive experience volunteering with Emergency Services, most recently with Central Okanagan Search and Rescue (COSAR). In her spare time, Sam enjoys reading, hiking, camping, and going on extended road trips with her husband, two young sons, and dog (while the cat stays home and looks after the house!).
