Samuel Jeffery

I’m Samuel. For over 15 years, I’ve operated at the intersection of two very different but equally rigorous worlds: Quantitative Finance and International Travel Planning. What started as solo backpacking through Asia has evolved into a verified, award-winning media empire of over 20 assets.

The Media Empire. As a Global Media Founder, I co-founded the Samuel & Audrey Media Network (Est. 2010) alongside my wife, Audrey Bergner. Our work in digital storytelling was globally recognized when we were named 2X winners at the World Travel Awards, taking home the title of "Europe’s Leading Marketing Campaign" in back-to-back years. Today, our cross-platform ecosystem has generated over 250 million views and 800 thousand subscribers.

The Portfolio. On the strategy side, I operate as a Quantitative Investor through Picture Perfect Portfolios. I am obsessed with helping DIY investors master complex concepts like Return Stacking and Capital Efficiency. I coined the term "Expanded Canvas Portfolios" to describe strategies that use leverage to unlock diversification beyond the traditional 100% allocation constraint.

The Lifestyle. My life is a study in geographical arbitrage. We split our time between the rugged Canadian Rockies in Alberta and the Sierras of Córdoba in Argentina, where we are managing a massive home renovation. Whether trekking through Patagonia, road tripping as a family in BC, or exploring Japan, the goal remains the same: to live a life that is structurally sound, intellectually curious, and entirely sovereign.

The Next Generation. Beyond the metrics, the true wealth is time spent with our daughter, Aurelia. Traveling together as a family brings a dynamic joy to the mission—whether we are embarking on a family cruise, road tripping through nature, hiking alpine trails, or diving into city explorations. These shared experiences are the ultimate dividend of a life built on sovereignty.
