He is proficient in Spanish. Colleagues describe him as "Sam is a gifted leader, strategic thinker, and a supportive advocate. Late last year, he moved from San Francisco to Salt Lake City to help build and scale a customer success team from 1 employee (himself) to now 16+ employees. It's not easy to successfully scale a support team from scratch at a fintech startup in a very niche industry, and much less so when you're new to the company and industry yourself. But Sam did so with so much finesse, impressing me time and time again with his fearlessness and ability to motivate his team to do their best work and be their best selves. Sam was great not only because he knew how to lead, but because he also genuinely cared about and invested in his team. He was very supportive of our individual goals for career development, and always encouraged us to take ownership of projects that would stretch us and help us work towards those long term goals. There are a few good books/talks by Liz Wiseman on multiplier vs. diminisher leaders. I'd definitely describe Sam as a multiplier leader--he amplifies and elevates the talent of those that surround him.", "Sam tackles the toughest support problems professionally and effectively providing clients with quick resolutions. His support training sessions and forums for interactive team discussions improved performance by identifying problem areas and providing solutions for improvement through open discussions. I highly recommend Sam as a leader, educator and colleague.", and "I worked closely with Sam for nearly four years, split between Silicon Valley Bank where we worked on the same sales team, to Carta where we both were forced to adapt to working at a startup that we used to compete with. From the beginning, I was consistently in awe at Sam's extraordinary abilities and qualities. He exhibited the highest levels of professionalism, charisma, work ethic and maturity of anyone I'd ever met - and he was younger than everyone on our team. He inspired those around him and always exuded optimism. His positive and supportive leadership style was well received by his team members comprised of various backgrounds and experience levels. I'm confident Sam will succeed at anything he puts his mind to. I would follow him to great lengths and any team would be incredibly lucky to have him."
