Sami grew up on beautiful Coogee Beach in Sydney, Australia. She was an avid beach-goer from a very young age and was a volunteer beach lifeguard by thirteen. Sami spent two summers teaching swimming, sailing, and water-skiing at summer camps in Texas and Vermont and traveled to all seven continents on Norwegian Cruise Lines, working as a supervisor in the Kid's Club. In 2009, Sami settled in New York City. Sami is thrilled to be at Imagine and that her love for the water has passed on to her two kids, who swim at the TriBeCa Flagship on a weekly basis.
