Miss Universe Canada, Samantha Tajik (in black bikini) is a very energetic individual with a genuine passion for mankind. Born in Iran, Samantha moved to Canada at the age of two, and grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia with her parents and younger brother. She later moved to Toronto, where she commenced her modeling career and studied cosmetology. Samantha has achieved great success in the world of pageantry and feels at home on the stage.

Samantha enjoys, traveling, skating, keeping active, and dancing. One of Samantha's attributes is that she posses great leadership skills. She has been able to create many social events in Toronto's competitive entertainment industry by managing and directing. Being a young woman and entering the difficult and demanding world of business, Samantha has shone and displayed an ambitious and fearless business woman. Being aware of where she is going and how she is getting there, Samantha always put her fears aside and faced the music with her heart at her sleeve. She has always been able to shine brightly among others, always remembering that the only thing to fear is fear itself.

 A true perfectionist, Samantha is very committed to her responsibilities and role as Miss Universe Canada, attending numerous events and assisting with various charities. She recently returned from Nicaragua where she visited projects of the American-Nicaraguan Foundation, and hopes to create awareness for the needs of children in that country.

An avid sportswoman, Samantha has volunteered her time for numerous charities including the Canadian Cancer Society, Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, Canadian AIDS Society, UNICEF Canada, Against Gun Violence, and the Brazilian Ball 2007 and 2008.
