Good morning, Pine Crest family! 🐾 I’m Sam (Shafer) Levin, Class of 2012 and I am so excited to be taking over Pine Crest School today! My PC journey started all the way back in 1st grade at the Boca campus before heading to Fort Lauderdale for high school. Some of my absolute best friends to this day are people I met walking these halls and that says everything about this special school. 💚🤍

Fast forward: I graduated from The George Washington University and spent 10 incredible years living in New York City, working my way up to Head of Marketing for Kérastase at L’Oréal a dream job at a dream company. Now I’ve traded the NYC hustle for Miami sunshine and I am loving every second of it. Today I wear two hats: I’m a holistic nutritionist Sam Levin | Certified Holistic Nutrition Coach helping women of all ages crush their wellness goals and feel their absolute best and a marketing consultant helping up-and-coming beauty brands grow and build their footprint.

Stick with me today as I take you through my world, from PC memories to NYC at the largest beauty company in the world to Miami life with what I’m building now. Let’s go, Panthers! 🐾
