For Sampson, the best aspects of working in public safety are the people and the job itself. My love for public safety is what it is. I love the public and I love what we do and I love all aspects of it, Sampson said.
When he worked at Lincoln County, Sampson was deployed to North Carolina to assist with a hurricane and he worked there for two weeks as the operation sections chief. I controlled all movement of public safety inside the county for the hurricane and it was a great experience, Sampson said.
He is happy to return to his work in a county he hopes will be one of the top emergency management agencies in the state.
