My name is Samantha Stark and this is a little bit about me. I graduated from Bay High School in Ohio in 2003, did some college while in the Navy and got most my basic courses and electives out of the way. I’ve never taken an online course before, and while I’m excited to get started I put off taking one because I’m a bit of a procrastinator.
Before I joined the Navy I was a waitress at Friendly’s and Zeppe’s Pizza. I came into the military as a still photographer and the Navy decided to merge all media based jobs and I found my way into Broadcast Media. I shot news stories, anchored news on TV in Crete Greece 3 days a week and hosted a morning radio show. While stationed in Korea I was the mid-day and then afternoon DJ being voted the Best in the Pacific 2 years in a row.
I grew up in Cleveland Ohio, and now live with my BF in Washington State. I love to read and I will read just about anything you put in front of me. Some of my favorite books include the Dexter series, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, Memoirs of a Geisha and The Lovely Bones. I also sew, knit, crochet, stitch and run an online blog and photo gallery website.
I’m not a fan of most reality TV and believe it is the downfall of intelligence in the US.
I have been out of the military for almost a month and have been in the states for about 3. That is the longest I have been in the US in 7 years. My Navy career has taken me all over the world, Italy, Greece, Korea, Africa, Montenegro and Spain to name a few. I always had trouble with picking up a language so I tell people I’m fluent in ItaliaGreeKorean. Italy, Greece and Korea is where I spent most of my time.
My degree is in Communications so I can pursue Radio Broadcasting as my career. That’s also why I left the Navy, to pursue my goals. The more I advanced the further away I would be from what I love doing which is entertaining.
Thanks for reading and I wish you all luck in school and your goals!
