Samantha Stender
Vibe Manager
Samantha, A.K.A. Sam, was born and raised in a small town in Minnesota (we’re talking 350 people with no stop light small). After moving to Colorado Springs in 2013, Samantha has spent a majority of her career working for non-profits in an operational capacity. While connecting with people is Sam’s favorite thing to do at work, she also loves improving the process, checking things off her list, and helping the team get to where they are going. She is often referred to as a “jack of all trades” and is willing to hop in wherever to reach the end goal!
As a homebody, Sam enjoys cooking with her husband (also named Sam) and watching new TV shows. If she isn’t at home, you can usually find her at the local Goodwill, laughing with her friends, or exploring new cities and the coffee shops they provide. To get on her good side, bring her an iced Vanilla Latte when you drop by the office!
Baxter Werner
Security & Meeting Supervisor
Baxter is our in-house security, meeting supervisor, and comedic relief. He is also our backup for greeting visitors and is easily bribed by neck scratches and biscuits.
