Fun Facts
Sam grew up in upstate New York and migrated west, eventually settling in Portland. In his time off, he dabbles in outdoor activities including hiking, backpacking, rafting, kayaking, hunting, and rolling as a member of the Portland Bocce Club. His family (Rebecca, Lucia, and Margot) generally tolerate his pursuits and are too-often talked into joining him in his ongoing series of "ill-conceived Dad adventures."
