Sam is mayor of the fast growing Selwyn District and is one of the youngest mayors in New Zealand.  We talk about his childhood, the decision to pursue a political career and what he has learned on the journey.  In particular, he reflects on the people who have played a role in his life and encouraged him and what sort of legacy he wants to leave behind.  We also cover his involvement in other things such as 24/7 youth work and engaging with young people in Selwyn.
