Sammy Hastings was born in a small town in Bloomington, Indiana. While growing up in Bloomington, Sammy was very active with the Bloomington Philharmonic Orchestra and The Sounds of South, a local Musical Theater group. As well as his love for music, Sammy has a deep connection with animals. Sammy's closest friends growing up were his dogs and horses. Sammy raised, trained and showed Quarter Horses on the Quarter Horse Circuit in the Mid-West, one of his most favorite past times which he still enjoy's. After graduating High School Sammy was unclear of his future plans. Sammy was planning to attend Indiana University and major in Musical Theater but destiny had another plan. A close family friend who was in the Fashion Industry had taken notice of Sammy's keen sense of Fashion, Style, and People Skills while growing up. She felt Sammy had a lot of talent and needed some help and direction; she had him over for lunch and asked him if he would like to live in New York City and work for the FORD Modeling Agency. Sammy was very excited and shocked by the offering and accepted right away. Small town boy was on his way to the big city with much to learn. While in New York City, Sammy worked his way up the Fashion Retail ladder working for Company’s such as J. Crew, Banana republic and mostly for designer Nicole Miller as Director of Visual Merchandising. Sammy lived in NYC for a little over four years and then decided on a move to San Francisco to follow his heart. Once in the Bay Area,  Sammy managed the flag ship Z.Gallerie Home Furnishings Store in Palo Alto, opened the flag ship Guess store in downtown San Francisco and was the Regional Visual Merchandising Manager,  as well as Director of New Store openings for Pure Beauty. In 2005 after working in Sales, Marketing and Management for 12 years Sammy decided to follow his Aunts advice and start a career in Real Estate.
