Sam M. Miravalle

she/her - Washington, D.C. | Augusta, GA

LYB Mindset Facilitator

About me: Sam is a multi-exit Founder and CEO, turning personal recovery into community impact. After multiple TBIs and severe nerve damage led her down a path of 1,000+ hours of yoga and mindfulness training, she discovered the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern technology.

Whether building companies, teaching yoga to government agencies, or developing predictive analytics - Sam brings the same intensity to algorithms and asanas by applying the disciplined sequencing that helped her rebuild after brain injury. When not serving on the board or on the ground of the non-profits she loves, Sam can be found running her dual-use deep tech company, Baseline Defense (CEO and Founder), and her deep/hard tech consultancy, Miraveil (Founding Partner).

Why LYB: Sam is committed to focusing on technologies and missions that strengthen both national security and civilian communities—because the best solutions serve everyone, not just those at the top.

Sam can (proudly) execute both a hostile takeover and a perfect handstand—because the best board meetings start with pranayama and end with actionable KPIs.

Superhero: My mother is the best person I have ever had the privilege of knowing. My mentor, my best friend, and my hero - she taught me how to be tough but kind. Hold boundaries with grace. Serve others without sacrificing yourself. And was an example of the duty we all have to each other as humans, all with compassion and humility.
