    Before joining UBS in 2013, Sam was the executive assistant to the CEO of a life insurance company working with high net worth clients. This experience helped her to understand the importance of exceptional customer service.

    Sam has a B.A. in business management and a minor in communications from Simmons College, and holds the Series 7 and 66 securities licenses. Within the Group, what Sam values most is going the extra mile for clients to provide them with a top-notch customer experience. She very much enjoys working with a team. The team environment provides her the ability to acquire a comprehensive picture of each client’s unique needs as she helps connect the dots of their financial lives—everything from setting up new accounts to working closely with estate attorneys and CPAs to create a customized experience at UBS.

    After living in San Diego for the past fours years, Sam and her dog Logan just moved back to the East Coast.  During her spare time, she enjoys being outdoors, taking her dog to the beach, hiking, playing field hockey, golfing, and spending time with her family in Vermont.  Sam also prioritizes health and wellness, reading, and meditation.
