‘There’s never a day where I don’t want to get up and go and do what I have to do’
Growing up on the South Coast surrounded with a seafaring family, Sam was instilled with a love of the sea and sailing. With initial plans of naval engineering, Sam never thought she would be part of the team on the boat. Years on, Sam has taken part in over 25 transatlantic races, raising money through her sport, and encouraging young women to follow in her footsteps and start sailing.
Sam shares:
Extreme adventures and races she has taken part in on her boat Initiatives-Cœur, and some of the challenges she has faced along the way. The amount of work that goes into a race before you’ve even crossed the starting line including sponsorship, planning and training. Supporting the life-saving work that Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque do to save children who are born with heart defects in developing countries. The inspiring work of Tracy Edwards leading the way for women in sailing, and how Sam is helping to opening doors in sailing for young girls and women with The Magenta Project.https://www.initiatives-coeur.fr/en
