Originally from Washington DC, Sam started running sophomore year of high school after getting cut from the St. John’s soccer team. Sam was encouraged to run in college by head coach Desmond Dunham and went on to run three years (due to COVID) at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, ME. Sam currently sits 4th on Bowdoin’s indoor 5k all-time list, 4th on the outdoor 10k all-time list, and 6th on the outdoor 5k all-time list. He is hoping to focus on improving his track PRs and introduce himself to the road racing scene before eventually moving up to reaching his potential in the marathon. Sam work as a postbac research fellow at the National Institutes of Health.
