	Personal History

Sam was born and raised in Bigfork Montana alongside 3 brothers and one sister.(Her sister Alexis unfortunately perished at the age of 12 after a run in with a bear.) Sam grew up with a love for the outdoors. Which was great considering her family was responsible for Glacier National Park. Sam's heart was never set on taking up the family business with the park, she dreamed of life in the stars and pursued her dreams to obtain her degree in Planetary Science. After gaining her masters at MSU she found herself wondering if Starfleet was really for her. It wasn't until her brother, Nathan came for a visit and brought along his brilliant Chief Science officer girlfriend Robin Hopper, that Sam really wanted to give life in the stars a try. With hopes of joining Nathan and Robin on Amity, Sam decided to come aboard as a Civilian Scientist to really get a feel for things in space.

One day while doing work and chores around her home near the entrance to the park, a fire started that nearly took her life and destroyed everything left to her by her parents, were it not for one brave fire fighter.

A woman who he would one day marry.

Close Friends

Friend-Nathan's Girlfriend Robin is easily one of Sam’s biggest role models. Nathan and Robin came to Earth for Blake's wedding, where Sam got to meet Nathey-poo’s Girlfriend. They hit it off quickly and Robin helped nudge Sam towards life in the Delta Quadrant. Upon Sam’s arrival, Sam and Robin have already had a great time shopping with their friends and spending time in the SRC working together.

Romantic Interest Days After the devastation of Frontier Day, Sam went to seek solace at a bar in San Francisco, when a tall handsome Talos introduced himself to her. Despite Talos not wanting things to get weird and spending time with Nathan Richards’ sister, he took a chance and they spent a wild night bar hopping, doing flaming shots and cliff jumping. Even after best efforts on both sides, they spent the night together in his XO quarters. Sam has had a difficult time not thinking about Talos and their night spent together, she often finds herself wondering if he’s thinking about her too…

Friend Sam met Niev on Frontier Day. In the midst of the worst day of her life, she was introduced to the timid Science Officer. Later that day they would both be assimilated by the Borg and become Six of Eleven and Seven of Eleven. The two have yet to talk much about what happened that day, but the time they spent together on Earth afterwards would be forever memorable. Matching tattoos, ice cream and arguing about their favorite planets were just some of the things they did to cope with the unfortunate situation they met in. Sam quickly latched into Niev as one of her best friends, whether Niev knows that or not is to be determined.

Roommate-Friend Although the two have not spent much time together, Sam does enjoy Esma’s company and thinks she is actually quite funny. Sam plans to get Esma out of her shell more and go on some adventures together.
