At Storyteller Overland, we believe in celebrating the incredible people who drive our success and today, we’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on one of our own. Sam Grimes, our Chief Legal Officer, has been named to the Birmingham Business Journal’s prestigious 2026 Top 40 Under 40 list!
This honor recognizes emerging leaders who are shaping Birmingham’s business landscape, and Sam’s inclusion is a testament to his exceptional leadership, expertise, and the pivotal role he plays in Storyteller’s journey.
Before stepping into his role as Chief Legal Officer, Sam was no stranger to Storyteller. As our outside counsel at Burr & Forman LLP, he guided us through critical milestones, bringing a wealth of experience and insight to the table. Since officially joining the team, Sam has been a driving force behind our growth and innovation.
From navigating complex supply chain negotiations that ensure the quality and resilience of our adventure vehicles to spearheading transformative capital raises—including a landmark investment from L Catterton, the world’s largest consumer-focused private equity firm—Sam’s impact has been nothing short of extraordinary. His strategic guidance has helped us expand, evolve, and strengthen our position as a leader in the adventure vehicle industry.
