Samantha Riley
Social Media Coordinator
Florida
Hi, I'm Samantha!
I'm from sunny Central Florida, where I live with my amazing husband and our two wonderful kids. I’m a proud graduate of the University of Florida (Go Gators!), where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Telecommunication in 2018 with a focus in Social Media Management. My goal has always been to help people and brands use social media to their fullest potential. Having worked with many non-profits and ministries over the years, I’ve seen just how important a strong digital presence is for spreading the mission and connecting with others.
I gave my life to Jesus and was baptized back in elementary school—and that early foundation has shaped so much of who I am today. I’ve spent over 10 years serving in Children’s Ministry leadership roles, and it's a joy to continue pouring into this kind of work through KidZ at Heart.
While I was initially recommended to join the KidZ team, I instantly connected with the mission. I love how we’re not just teaching about Jesus—we’re training leaders to build deeper, more meaningful relationships with the kids they serve.
These days, I get to work behind the scenes helping share that mission through our social media channels. I’m passionate about storytelling, building awareness, and helping others catch a glimpse of what God is doing through this ministry.
