Samantha realised the importance of staying present minded when her brother left after graduating. She saw how fast time changed, so she wanted to be able to enjoy every moment. Sammiewas born in Olympia, Washington from American parents. She moved with them and her two brothers to Bulgaria in the summer of 2014. Sammie is fluent in English, and knows a little Bulgarian and Spanish. When her older brother left after graduating, Sammie noticed how fast time passes, so she wanted to know how to thoroughly enjoy that time, and she realized that other people need to know how to be happier too. Her talk, “The Power of Staying Present” fits with this year's theme of Transformation through innovation because when you learn to stay in the moment and act on making sure that you do, you become not only happier but healthier.
