Fun things about Samantha

Samantha is a big pet lover, so it is only fitting that she has three dogs and one sphynx cat. She also grew up on a dairy farm where they have Brown Swiss cows. Ironically, she is lactose intolerant and isn’t able to support dairy farmers like she would like to. Samantha’s love of animals influenced her a lot as a child and her dream job was to become a large animal vet.

Whatever you do, don’t ask Samantha about Harry Potter, she is an obsessed Gryffindor!
