Meet Sam Powers!

Hello! My name is Samuel Powers, but you can call me Sam.

I was born on February 8, 1996, and I am 23-years-old. I live in Columbiana, Ohio where I attended Crestiview High School. During my last two years of high school, I took part in the Seniors to Sophomores program where I attended college courses at Kent State University’s Salem branch in addition to my high school classes.

After my high school graduation, I transferred to Youngstown State University where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Physics. As for where I am now, I work with ISLE inc. at Golden String Radio where I host a radio show about the discoveries scientists have made in outer space. I hope you choose to tune into my show and learn about the cosmos.
