SAM MASSA
IN THE ARENA
Sam is an enthusiastic entrepreneur with a passion for inspiring others. Sam has always been interested in business: from mowing lawns and selling lemonade as a kid, to converting Arnold Schwarzenegger's personal fleet of H1 Hummers to burn Recycled Straight Vegetable Oil, or now working as a technical innovator in the Fire and Emergency Services industries, Sam never tires of telling the stories of his time "in the arena."
​
Throughout school, Sam struggled with Dyslexia and other learning disabilities. Rather than getting bogged down with the problems he faced in school, he focused on strengths and found things he loved (and could turn in to businesses). Today, Sam tells his story to audiences from middle school kids to business professionals and engages audiences in discussions about what success really looks like for the engaged entrepreneur.
"You may not remember me, but I was here when Ms. Henry brought this past school year to speak to her classes. We were so impressed by your presentation and your story that we’d really like to invite you back this year to speak"
Charlie F., Rocky Run Middle School

THE ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

"Needing an accommodation in school doesn't make you stupid!  "
Michelle Henry, Middle School Teacher
