Happy holidays from Tom and Christine Hulick! Wishing you a healthy and positive New Year in 2026! Thank you for being a part of the SAM family.
Spending time away from the office and finding adventure in the great outdoors. Work hard, play harder!
A sailor plots a course, aware that conditions will change. Wind, currents, and weather can shift. The sailor must adjust the sails and heading accordingly. Likewise, an investor sets a strategy based on goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Market conditions will change, and success depends on adapting without losing sight of the long-term destination.
Sometimes I like to horse around on Christmas.
I played guitar at a summer benefit concert series this year, bringing people together for a time of music, laughter, and support for a great cause.
One of my favorite things about living near Pasadena is the chance to regularly enjoy the Huntington, one of the most beautiful gardens in the world.
A special night together in New York City! A reminder to slow down and appreciate the people who make the journey worthwhile.
Visiting Big Ben in London with my little girl.
This year was a big one — I bought my first home for my two girls and me out on the Washington coast! We’ve been soaking up family time and spending as much time outdoors as possible, exploring our new community and making it feel like home.
One of our highlights this year was a trip to Colombia — beautiful beaches, great coffee, and time to slow down and appreciate the little things. As the holidays arrive, we hope you find those same moments of joy and calm. Happy holidays and best wishes for the New Year.
We always travel to Europe, and this year we chose to visit the south of France. We enjoyed the farmers markets, lavender fields, beautiful beaches, and delicious food. My kids were able to experience beautiful French culture, try new foods, and immerse themselves in a foreign language and way of life.
Running the LA Kings 5k with my friend Will/Joe and his kids.
I got married this year in Pasadena, California, to my college sweetheart, Devyn. We were married at Pasadena’s historic Westminster Presbyterian Church and celebrated with family and friends at the Brookside Golf Club next to the Rose Bowl. It was a beautiful and joy-filled day marking a wonderful new chapter in our lives.
Wishing you a joyful and festive season filled with warmth, happiness, and the best of company!
