Meet the Team
Hey Nesties, My name is Samantha Gil, Founder, and President of Nest of Love.
I believe in “We Change Our Women, We Change Our World.” I am a proud sister of 4, me being the oldest and having the responsibility of being a role model to my younger sisters.
My mom had me when she was just 17 years old and was a single-mother while my father was also a 19-year-old teen. While both parents were still trying to figure out their lives, I was mainly being raised by my grandmother whom I lost to Gallbladder and Colon Cancer.
I founded Nest of Love in September 2018 once I started to seek my purpose. As I was working as a finance manager at Mercedes-Benz, all my friends would come to me for guidance. I felt God has called upon me to be a Leader.
I knew I had a gift of empowering girls and women through self-development, investment opportunities, saving, budgeting, and becoming the leaders I felt they are all destined to be.
I created Nest of Love because I always wanted someone to believe in me. I find so many women and girls who are not supported yet are seeking leadership. Through NOL, we will be able to impact and change the lives of so many.
By helping a woman, we are able to impact their life, careers, and family.

SAMANTHA GIL
Founder
As the driving force behind Nest of Love, I built this foundation on a simple yet transformative belief: everyone deserves someone to believe in their dreams. In a world where countless women lack the support they crave, I felt compelled to act. Moving away from a career in finance at Mercedes-Benz, I found my true calling in empowering women to lead, not just in select phases, but throughout the entirety of their lives.
