SAMANTHA DURHAM
DRIVER • EXPLORER • TEAM BUILDER
—
Samantha, from Lufkin, Texas, is a determined, hardworking woman who believes that dreams are earned through grit, perseverance, and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone.
Growing up with a love for the outdoors and off-roading, Samantha has never been afraid of a challenge. She enjoys technical trails, difficult terrain, and the satisfaction that comes from overcoming obstacles—both on the trail and in life. Her outgoing personality, positive attitude, and ability to connect with people make her a natural ambassador for the team and its partners.
When she's not planning the next adventure, Samantha enjoys crafting, spending time with family and friends, and making the most out of every opportunity. She believes life should be lived to the fullest, filled with laughter, meaningful experiences, and memories worth sharing.
As the wife of a United States Marine Corps veteran, supporting the military community is personal to her. One organization especially close to her heart is Mission 22, a nonprofit dedicated to providing support and resources for veterans and their families facing the invisible wounds of service.
Samantha's goal extends far beyond crossing the finish line at the Rebelle Rally. She wants to inspire others to believe that you don't need a professional racing background or unlimited resources to pursue extraordinary dreams. With determination, hard work, and the support of a community that believes in you, anything is possible.

Julie, from Bridge City, Texas, is the steady, thoughtful force behind the East Texas Rebelles. She is intelligent, strong, and focused—someone who approaches every challenge with patience, determination, and a willingness to learn.

Outside of off-roading, Julie loves baking, spending time with her beautiful family, and making memories with her grandchildren.

Her kind heart, strong work ethic, and determination inspire those around her to believe that ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things.
